About this home
More than a property, this is an exceptional opportunity to restore, renovate, or thoughtfully expand a traditional minimalist home on a generously sized lot in Seattle's desirable North Beach neighborhood. The inviting 2-bedroom, 1-bath floor plan opens to a cozy living room highlighted by period-inspired tile and a classic mantled fireplace before flowing into a sunlit formal dining alcove ideal for gathering. The adjoining kitchen offers a simple, functional layout with views of the backyard. The spacious basement, complete with utility area and wood-paneled walls, provides abundant potential for additional living space, a workshop, or storage. Outside, an enchanting garden showcases a diverse collection of native, heritage, and exotic plantings, creating a peaceful outdoor retreat. A detached garage and long driveway provide convenient off-street parking and additional storage. Ideally located near neighborhood restaurants, bakeries, and coffee shops, with convenient access to Sunset Hill, Golden Gardens Park, schools, transit, Ballard, Downtown Seattle, and beyond. A rare opportunity to bring your vision to life in one of Northwest Seattle's most sought-after neighborhoods.
