Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1959, this mid-century home is well-maintained but dated. The kitchen cabinetry and bathroom fixtures appear to be from a renovation performed over 20 years ago. While the home is 'beautifully livable' and features original architectural elements like the stone fireplace, it requires cosmetic updates and likely system modernizations to meet current standards.
This mid-century modern home features floor-to-ceiling windows that capture stunning sunrise views over Lake Washington and majestic vistas of Mt. Rainier.
Situated just steps from a public lakefront beach, the home is elevated above the street for enhanced privacy while remaining in a highly sought-after neighborhood.
The property includes a circular floor plan with a double-sided fireplace and a lower level with separate exterior access, offering excellent potential for a guest suite or home office.
The fourth bedroom on the lower level is considered non-conforming due to window height, which may impact appraisal valuations and official bedroom counts.
With a lot size of 4,760 square feet, the outdoor space is relatively compact compared to other detached single-family residences in the area.
Step into the light! Sited above the street for added privacy, this mid-century modern home features floor to ceiling, east-facing windows framing sunrise views over Lake Washington, with majestic Mt. Rainier to the south. The circular floor plan is anchored by an impressive stone double sided fireplace providing an architectural separation between the living and dining rooms. The dining room connects naturally to the outdoors with oversized sliding glass doors leading to a blissfully private back patio - perfect for alfresco dining or quiet moments. An ensuite primary suite, two additional bedrooms and a full bath complete the main floor. The lower level, with separate exterior access, includes a spacious rec room with fireplace, full bath, utility room and fourth bedroom (non-conforming due to window height). The substantial two-car garage also has plenty of space for a shop and should accommodate all your storage needs. Off-street parking for two additional vehicles. Outside, enjoy the well established low-maintenance landscaping and a ‘hidden’ fully fenced level garden space at the north end of the property. Coveted Seward Park location, with access to a public lakefront beach just down the street. Beautifully livable with room to enhance and personalize - a home like this doesn't come along very often.
No exterior & parking available.
