Excellent
TeardownExcellent
Property is new construction or fully renovated.
The property has undergone a complete studs-out rebuild, featuring a brand-new roof, siding, windows, electrical, plumbing, and mini-split HVAC system. The kitchen and bathrooms are fully modernized with high-end finishes like quartz countertops and heated tile floors, meeting the criteria for a mint-condition, maintenance-free home renovated within the last 5 years.
PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES
- Comprehensive Studs-Out Rebuild
This 1905 home has been fully permitted and rebuilt from the studs out, featuring all-new systems including electrical, plumbing, roof, and mini-split HVAC, offering new-construction reliability with historic charm.
- Exceptional Walkability
Boasting a Walk Score of 95, the property is perfectly situated in North Admiral, providing immediate access to California Ave restaurants, Metropolitan Market, and the Alki waterfront.
- Rare Urban Parking Capacity
Unlike many homes in high-density Seattle neighborhoods, this property offers three private off-street parking spaces with additional potential for RV parking, a significant value-add for the area.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- Compact Interior Layout
With four bedrooms and three bathrooms distributed across only 1,466 square feet, the individual room sizes and common living areas may feel small or constrained for some buyers.
- Limited Outdoor Space
The 3,125 square foot lot is relatively small, leaving little room for a traditional backyard or significant private outdoor entertaining space.
