    Step back in time to the golden age of our city! Seattle's past and your future share the same address..and what a neighborhood! Step outside and the city arranges itself at your feet — a 98 walk score, a perfect 100 transit score, and a 94 bike score mean the Old Colony isn't just a home, it's a launch pad. The Frye Art Museum, Seattle University, and the pulse of Capitol Hill and downtown are all within easy reach, on foot, by bike, or by train. Built in 1909, the Old Colony has been lovingly preserved to showcase its original character while quietly accommodating modern life. Step inside to find soaring 9-foot ceilings, rich original hardwood floors, picture rails, dramatic 14" baseboards, ornate crown molding, antique lighting & a classic clawfoot tub — all the hallmarks of early-1900s craftsmanship. Solid wood pocket doors divide the generously sized living and dining rooms, creating a sense of formality and flow that's rare to find today. Modern comforts are woven in seamlessly, with free internet gas cooking, an in-unit washer and dryer, & a window A/C unit included for warm summer days. Storage is nothing short of exceptional: 3 hallway closets plus bedroom closets, with additional storage and a bike room in the basement. With 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, and oversized windows that flood the home with natural light, this is historic Seattle living at its finest. Pet friendly, no special assessments, no rental cap and free internet!
