About this home

Tucked in one of the most peaceful nooks of beloved Genesee Hill, discover the West Seattle mid-century you've been searching for! This cute-as-a-button home sits on a spacious corner lot & a super-quiet street w/ barely any cars passing by & Schmitz Preserve Park right outside your door! Classic charm meets modern updates in this solidly built & well maintained gem, where pride of ownership shows at every turn. Warm hardwoods flow throughout open living areas, bathed in fantastic sunlight year-round. A wood-burning fireplace adds warmth & ambiance for chilly fall evenings while central A/C will keep you comfy for many summers to come. Pick up great takeout from a number of fantastic spots close by, or cook to your heart's content in the updated kitchen, equipped w/ granite counters, cherry cabinets & stainless appliances. Versatile layout w/ 2 beds, a remodeled full bath & an office/flex space on the main level, then a fabulous primary retreat encompassing the upper level, complete w/ built-ins & gorgeous 3/4 bath. French doors lead outside onto a low-maintanence composite deck overlooking your fully fenced backyard oasis. Meandering trails lead down to Alki for beachy fun & unforgettable sunsets, or explore all the fantastic dining, boutiques, bars & events that both Admiral & the Junction have to offer, just mins away. Hop on the 57 bus around the corner for an easier-than-ever commute downtown, or take advantage of nearby access to the WS Bridge or water taxi.
