Seller paid 2-1 buy down. Nestled along a quiet, tree-lined stretch of 12th Ave NW, this Willow 12th residence offers thoughtful design and multi-level outdoor living in one of Ballard’s most inviting pockets. The experience begins with a private, partially covered courtyard—perfect for morning coffee or container gardening—before opening into a warm, modern interior defined by wide-plank floors and abundant natural light. The main floor features a seamless flow from the well-appointed kitchen, complete with gas cooking and sleek cabinetry, into a living area where oversized windows blur the lines between indoors and out. The mid-level provides a secondary bedroom, a full bath, and a versatile office or den, while the entire top floor is dedicated to a spacious primary suite featuring its own private balcony. With dedicated parking and modern systems throughout, this home offers a refined, grounded lifestyle just steps from Soundview Playfield, Baker Park, and the vibrant dining scene of Ballard and Crown Hill.
