About this home

A 1924 Craftsman from the street, a wall of glass from the back, and the Space Needle framed in nearly every window. Step through the front door and the view arrives all at once, past the fireplace and fluted columns to a light-filled tiled sunroom made for relaxing, game nights, and watching twinkling city lights. Slide open the door to a sprawling deck for dining al fresco with Elliott Bay and the downtown skyline glinting beyond. The updated kitchen keeps the Needle in view, with new quartz countertops juxtaposed by an original leaded-glass window shade as a nod to the home’s roots. Upstairs, the apartment-sized primary suite is a home-within-a-home: walls of glass, a gas fireplace, a generous walk-in closet, a marble spa bath with soaking tub, and a private balcony for a refreshing libation overlooking the skyline after dark. Four bedrooms in all, plus a finished daylight lower level with family room and covered patio. Out back, a flagstone path winds through terraced gardens to a waterfall-fed pond, alive with butterflies, birds, and dragonflies. A fully fenced yard - perfect for late-night “dog walks,” two-car garage, and neighborhood permit street parking. High enough for the view, close enough to walk to Seattle Center, the Monorail, Kerry Park, and the shops of Uptown and Upper Queen Anne. Loved by one family for 38 years and always the place friends wanted to gather, it's ready for its next chapter.
