Tucked away on a quiet street in the prime Whittier/Ballard neighborhood, this light-filled cottage isn’t just a home — it’s where chapters begin. Southern light spills across the floors as sun streams through the generously sized windows, warming a space that feels instantly welcoming and bright. Cozy, yet surprisingly spacious-this home lives beautifully beyond its footprint. The flexible third bedroom on the main level (with the 3/4 bath) becomes whatever your story needs--Home office, TV room, guest space or even a formal dining room. The ceilings soar in the 2 upstairs bedrooms that also face south and overlook the spacious backyard. The yard is completely fenced and flows seamlessly from the entry, and from the main living space, creating that indoor-outdoor connection everyone dreams about. Close to neighborhood cafés & parks, yet peacefully removed from it all. This one is special and unique! (Sewer capacity to be assumed by the Buyer.)
