Welcome to this beautifully updated Craftsman in Whittier, where timeless character meets thoughtful modern design. An extensive $450K remodel and addition, completed in 2023, brought this home into the modern era while preserving its warmth and charm. The renovation includes updated plumbing, refinished hardwood floors, seismic improvements, oversized bathrooms, and a thoughtfully designed addition that expands the home's livability. Skylights fill the interior with natural light, creating bright, inviting spaces throughout. The unfinished basement provides excellent storage today, with potential to add additional finished living space in the future. Outside, the flat, grassy backyard is ideal for play, gardening, entertaining, or letting four-legged friends roam. Some of Ballard's best neighborhood amenities are just moments away, including Kirke Park, Take 5 Urban Market, Barking Dog Alehouse, Mainstay Provisions, and the many shops, restaurants, cafes, and gathering places that make Ballard so special. Enjoy the best of Seattle living with easy access to the natural beauty of the Pacific Northwest. The Sound is close by, while the Cascade and Olympic Mountains offer endless opportunities for hiking, skiing, and exploring. A rare combination of classic Seattle charm, extensive modern upgrades, future potential, and an exceptional location—this is a Whittier home ready to be enjoyed for years to come.
