This West Seattle bungalow is the ultimate gem. Located on an ultra sweet block near Morgan Junction, enjoy close access to a number of practical amenities as well as all the the fun on California Ave SW. This home is hallmarked by its wonderful, light-filled living spaces, large lot with verdant landscaping, as well as a pretty top-floor bedroom suite with four sides of windows. The galley-style kitchen connects the two living spaces, so arrange as you see fit! Enjoy ‘good weather days’ in the fully fenced backyard and patio, just off the back living room. A rare and oversized two-car garage is another amazing feature, accessed by the alley and a private driveway. Minutes to Alaska Junction, Vashon ferry, Lincoln Park and Downtown Seattle.
