About this home
Nestled on a quiet, tree-lined street in Madison Park, this wonderfully maintained mid-century brick residence blends privacy and timeless architecture with designer updates. Featured in the New York Times and set on a rare street-to-street lot, the stately property welcomes you through a gated courtyard and secure entry. Floor-to-ceiling wraparound windows fill the open main level with natural light, highlighting gracious living and spaces ideal for everyday living and entertaining. The updated kitchen features stainless steel appliances, Carrara marble surfaces, and a casual dining nook. Three bedrooms are located on the main level in addition to a Travertine accented bathroom. Two fireplaces—one in the living room and another in the lower-level media/recreation room—create warm and inviting gathering spaces throughout the home. Lower level also features a 3/4 bathroom, storage and garage access. Step outside to enjoy the private garden with irrigation system, and backyard deck, perfect for outdoor dining and entertaining. An attached two-car deep garage adds convenience. Just blocks from neighborhood shops, the Saturday farmers market, Madison Park Beach, and highly regarded McGilvra Elementary School as well as independent schools. Downtown Seattle, UW and the Eastside only minutes away, this home offers a rare opportunity in one of Seattle’s most coveted neighborhoods.
