Charming 1931 Ballard Tudor in amazing location available April 1. Ground floor includes two sizable bedrooms, full bath with tub, living room, separate dining room, kitchen + breakfast nook, and mud room leading to the backyard and driveway. Upstairs is a master bedroom suite with large main bedroom, two closets, full bath with double shower, bonus room with views of the Olympic Mountains in the distance, and a bonus work space with new skylights at the top of the stairs. Laundry and storage is available downstairs in the (unfinished) basement. Fenced backyard includes lilac trees and several fruit trees/bushes. This environmentally conscious home is powered by solar and an energy-efficient heat pump (providing heat and A/C), and conserves water with a rainwater harvesting system. The neighborhood is quiet and tree-lined, but only a 5-minute drive from the shops, bars, and restaurants of Downtown Ballard. Easy access to the U District and I5 from 80th/85th and it's a short jaunt from 15th and 99 to get downtown. Multiple public transportation options are just around the corner headed in all directions. Excellent schools are less than a mile away. Loyal Heights Community Center, with play fields and a brand-new playground, is just around the corner. We've enjoyed watching the orcas from both Sunset Hill Park (4 min drive) and Golden Gardens (7 min drive). For foodies, the house is two blocks from a James Beard award-winning butchery (Beast and Cleaver), a traditional Scandinavian bakery (Larsen's), incredible Lebanese food (Cafe Munir), rotating food trucks, and a beer garden. This is our family's dream home and it has been lovingly cared for, but work pulled us away from the city for now.
