In-Person: 09/27 1:00 PM - 3:00 PMSet within one of the University District's most distinctive Spanish Revival buildings, this rare top-floor corner home offers timeless architectural details with recent building improvements, including new plumbing, sewer lines, and laundry completed in 2024. Rich hardwood floors, soaring beamed ceilings, original built-ins, a decorative fireplace, and a private west-facing balcony create a home that feels unlike anything built today. Stunning stained glass, handcrafted tilework, and a tranquil courtyard make coming home an experience rather than simply an arrival. Inside, the thoughtful floor plan includes a bright dining room, an adjoining flex space ideal for a home office or reading nook, a spacious bedroom, and a beautifully preserved vintage-tiled bath. Additional storage is included, and future options for ductless mini-split A/C and in-unit laundry offer flexibility for the next owner. A professionally managed, responsive HOA provides peace of mind. Bus service is literally outside your front door, and the U District Light Rail Station is just a few blocks away, for easy access to the neighborhood and greater Seattle. With no rental cap, no pet restrictions, enduring architectural significance, and meaningful infrastructure investments already complete, opportunities like this are increasingly difficult to find. Seller is offering a $10,000 buyer credit toward allowable closing costs or an interest-rate buydown.
