About this home
This 1924 Craftsman has been updated while retaining the character that made these homes special in the first place. The main floor has the classic Craftsman layout you hope to find with a welcoming living and dining room with original hardwood, cove ceiling and picture rail. A wood burning fireplace with period Batchelder tile details and built-ins completes the space.The vintage eat-in kitchen has quartz counters, freshly painted original cabinetry and new appliances, including a dishwasher. And tucked among those cabinets is a favorite detail—the built-in pie-cooling shelf and ironing board. You just don’t get that in a new kitchen. Even better, the expensive stuff is done. New wiring, plumbing, water main, sewer and furnace take much of the worry out of owning a 100-year-old home. Fresh interior and exterior paint and new light fixtures complete the refresh. Downstairs adds to the home’s 2097 total square feet with a high-ceiling, walk-out basement space that awaits your ideas. More bedrooms and bath? Studio? Media room? Workshop? Recreation space? Future finished living area? ADU (attached dwelling unit). There’s room to imagine. The large deep NR3 Zoned lot provides room to garden and play and a possible DADU (buyer to verify). A one-car garage and generous off-street parking are an increasingly rare Seattle luxury. Plus, you can walk to the nearest LINK Othello station. All in all, this is a home with history and personality ready for its next century of memories.
