Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1957, this mid-century home is exceptionally well-maintained, functional, and move-in ready with refinished hardwood floors, new basement carpet, and updated kitchen countertops and stainless steel appliances. However, it is fundamentally dated, featuring an entirely original 1950s green tile bathroom and original kitchen cabinetry that require modern updates.
The property offers expansive, unobstructed views of the Olympic Mountains, Puget Sound, and active shipping lanes from nearly every room, providing a premium Pacific Northwest living experience.
This 1957 mid-century modern showpiece retains its original character with refinished oak hardwoods, a large sandstone fireplace, and floor-to-ceiling windows, appealing to enthusiasts of the era.
The partially finished basement with a separate entrance offers a significant opportunity to increase equity by adding two bedrooms or converting the space into a legal ADU apartment.
While functional, the kitchen and bathrooms likely require modern updates to meet the expectations of buyers at the $1.4M price point, necessitating additional post-purchase investment.
With over 60 days on the market, the property may be facing price resistance or buyer concerns regarding the cost of modernization relative to the current list price.
Olympic Manor Mid Century Stunner is available for the first time since it was built. 1957 classic with expansive views of the Olympics, Puget Sound, Boats and Shipping Lanes, sits perfectly at the corner of 23rd and 93rd - high above the street and taking in the views from almost every room. Three large main floor bedrooms with original and refinished oak hard woods, ample cedar lined closet space, a primary 3/4 bathroom with room to expand. The upstairs living room is all windows and the view, with a large sand stone fireplace and so much space. A traditional dining room with seating for 8 and built ins, leads to the functional kitchen with built in desk, room for a breakfast table and lots of counter space. Downstairs currently is half finished with an amazing rec room with its own entrance, fireplace, new carpet and paint as well as a 3/4 bath and room for the next owner to add up to 2 more bedrooms or recreate it into a ADU apartment. Big 2 car garage and an enclosed patio off the kitchen, rockeries and various side yards give you all the outdoor space you could want. Olympic Manor, famous for the Christmas Lights and incredibly friendly neighbors, is an easy and safe walking area, close to Ballard and Seattle, with all the views of Blue Ridge without the HOA expense. They simply don't make homes like this anymore - amazing opportunity to be in one of North Seattle's most desirable locations with a midcentury showpiece for under $1.4M!
