Rare Seattle infill opportunity with significant feasibility work already completed. Seller recently commissioned a 2026 Critical Areas Feasibility Study by Eastside Environmental Pros identifying approximately 3,764 SF of the parcel outside the currently assumed critical-area buffers along S. Fountain Street. The report also identifies potential pathways to optimize the development envelope, including wetland buffer enhancement/reduction, buffer averaging, and further evaluation of the offsite Taylor Creek tributary. A single-family residence was previously proposed on the parcel under City of Seattle. Excellent opportunity for a builder, architect or buyer willing to complete the remaining feasibility and permitting process. Full environmental study available. Buyer to independently verify all development potential with City of Seattle and appropriate consultants.
