Condition Analysis
See Full ReportOVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Good
TeardownExcellent
Property is move-in ready.
While built in 1928, the home is move-in ready and well-maintained. The kitchen features granite countertops and stainless steel appliances suggesting a renovation within the 5-15 year range. Systems and finishes appear functional and updated, though the overall aesthetic retains classic character rather than a mint-condition modern overhaul.
PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES
- Exceptional Bonus Spaces & Views
The property features a unique vaulted sunroom loft with Puget Sound views and a high-ceiling daylight basement, providing significant square footage and flexibility for a guest suite, media room, or home office.
- Prime Coastal Location
Situated in the sought-after North Beach/Blue Ridge area, the home offers proximity to major parks and the rare opportunity for private North Beach Club membership with direct beach access.
- Timeless Architectural Appeal
This 1928 Craftsman is meticulously maintained, blending classic Seattle character like hardwood floors and period details with modern upgrades in the kitchen and outdoor entertaining spaces.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- Limited Bathroom Count
For a home of over 2,400 square feet, the 1.5-bathroom configuration may be a drawback for families or buyers expecting a full primary suite at this price point.
- Vintage Infrastructure Risks
Given the home's 1928 construction, potential buyers may face higher long-term maintenance costs or the need for system updates common in nearly century-old properties.
