    Perched in the heart of Phinney Ridge, this classic mid-century brick triplex blends timeless character with strong investment potential. The property features three well-appointed units, each with spacious layouts, abundant natural light with views of the Olympic Mountains, and period details that tenants love—hardwood floors, large picture windows, and solid construction throughout. Currently there is one vacant and staged unit for easy showings. The largest 3 bedroom unit will be available soon, for trouble free market rate lease updates and/or renovations, and wonderful owner occupant potential. The building offers a desirable mix of privacy, walkability and easy parking with three street facing garages. Residents enjoy easy access to neighborhood favorites—local cafés, parks, boutique shops, and major transit routes. Downtown Seattle is just minutes away. The durable brick exterior and mid-century design provide lasting curb appeal and low-maintenance ownership. Whether you're an investor seeking steady rental income or an owner-occupant looking to offset your mortgage, this triplex delivers flexibility and long-term upside in one of Seattle’s most sought-after neighborhoods. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to own a piece of Phinney Ridge charm with built-in income potential. Full Inspection available after showing.
