What's special

Storybook residenceFlexible living spacesCovered front porchGenerous outdoor setting

A truly rare opportunity in the heart of West Seattle’s Fairmount Park community. This storybook residence offers the charm and character of a classic home, but the real magic is in the possibilities that surround it. Enjoy your own private residence while owning one or both of the neighboring townhomes, creating an extraordinary chance to live on site, generate rental income and build long term equity in one of West Seattle’s most desirable locations. The home itself is warm, inviting and filled with natural light, with a covered front porch, flexible living spaces and a generous outdoor setting that feels equally suited for quiet mornings, summer evenings and gathering with friends. Recent improvements add comfort and confidence while preserving the character that makes the home so appealing. The location is equally compelling. Fairmount Park Elementary and Fairmount Playfield are just moments away, while the Alaska and Morgan Junctions, Camp Long, Lincoln Park, the Fauntleroy Ferry Terminal and convenient access to downtown place the best of West Seattle within easy reach. Opportunities like this are exceptionally hard to find: a charming home, multiple ownership options and the potential to create a one of a kind West Seattle investment compound that offers both lifestyle and long term value.
