Now offered at an exceptional new price, this elegant 1939 colonial presents a rare opportunity to own in one of the city's most coveted neighborhoods. At 3800 square feet, it boasts four bedrooms, formal living and dining rooms, an office, several bonus rooms, and a finished basement with separate entrance and mother-in-law potential. A series of significant improvements--including a comprehensive electrical overhaul, newly-lined side sewers and a seismic retrofit—make the home as solid as it is beautiful. Other updates include new kitchen appliances, refinished hardwood floors, new lighting and refurbished vintage fixtures, and all new interior and exterior paint. Detached two-car garage and lots of free parking out front. The house is just across the street from beautiful Roanoke Park and a soon-to-be-renovated children’s playground. The historic neighborhood is along a main north-south bus route and close to just about everything, including the University of Washington, Capitol Hill, and Downtown.
