The Rose Cottage in Rainier Beach is ready to be your cozy home! This house has tons of 1920s charm- original hardwood floors through out, working fireplace, and gorgeous mature rose bushes and flowering trees on the property. She also just got a fresh coat of paint, so is looking sharp. The huge backyard has a pie slice view of Lake Washington, a plum tree, a new patio (patio table & chair set included), strawberry and blueberry plants, as well as three raised garden beds ready for planting. The yard is also fully fenced in- perfect for your dog! The neighbors on one side are the Ethiopian Orthodox church garden and church, so it is very quiet. The block is extremely diverse; all the neighbors are very friendly and look out for one another. The house gets tons of natural light. A new heat pump keeps it cozy in winter and provides central AC in summer- a major bonus when stuck inside due to smoke. Living room has a wood burning fireplace and we can leave a record player cabinet if you are a vinyl enthusiast! We built floating shelves for our vinyl collection that frame the record cabinet. The smaller room makes a great office or baby room. It can also fit a queen sized air bed to transition it to a guest space as needed. The large partially finished basement is wonderful for storage, a kid's play area, a band practice space, art projects or home office. Space to park a car in the garage or in the driveway, as well as plenty of street parking.
