Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1952, this property is in fair condition, showing significant signs of age and outdated finishes. While the exterior appears maintained, the interior features older carpeting and a bathroom with dated cabinetry and fixtures likely from a renovation over 20 years ago. The high level of clutter and aged materials suggest the home requires minor repairs, deep cleaning, and cosmetic updates to reach a move-in ready standard.
Situated in the heart of Rainier Valley, the property is exceptionally close to Dunlap Elementary and offers easy access to Lake Washington, local parks, and vibrant community amenities.
The 4,200-square-foot lot includes a spacious yard ideal for gardening and entertaining, providing significant outdoor value for a single-family home in Seattle.
Priced competitively under $600k, this 3-bedroom home represents an excellent entry-level opportunity for first-time buyers or investors looking to enter the Southeast Seattle market.
With three bedrooms but only one bathroom, the layout may present logistical challenges for larger households and could impact future resale appeal.
While the property is served by some high-performing elementary and middle schools, the designated high school currently holds a low rating, which may be a concern for families with older children.
Charming and full of character, this 3-bedroom, 1-bath single-family home offers 1,230 square feet of comfortable living space in the heart of Seattle’s vibrant Rainier Valley. Located at 4504 S Trenton St, it sits in the diverse Dunlap neighborhood near parks, schools, and Lake Washington.
