If writers Jack Kerouac or Mary Pope Osborne built a home on Mercer Island this might be it. Warm and inviting, this 4-bed 3-bath mid-century urban cabin is a private sanctuary tucked into the trees. Open living, dining, fireplaces and kitchen grace the main floor. Lower level hosts the primary w/ensuite, 3 additional bedrooms, third bath & laundry. Sited on a spacious 16,440 sq ft lot in a well-established south end neighborhood presents favor to updates or new build. Home is an estate and sold as-is, but so livable. Property flanks Pioneer Park forested hiking/running trails. Two block walk to south end shopping, coffee, dining. Moments to downtown Mercer Island, easy access to I-90. Sought after top rated Mercer Island schools. A gem!
