Located in desirable Wallingford, this craftsman home exudes designer style, thoughtful, modern conveniences, and period details restored to 1918 perfection. Four bedrooms, two on the main and two upstairs, both bathrooms are updated with tile, glass, wallpaper, and color! The kitchen is a work of art with ceiling height cabinets, butcher block counters, floating glass shelves, a built-in pantry, herringbone brick floors, and new appliances. Downstairs is a huge family room, large enough for a 5th bedroom, gym, and home office, or turn it into a MIL. Outside you will love the covered front porch, landscaped yard, fully fenced front and back, deck, patio, gardens, faux turf, shed, and garage. Walk to Greenlake, Tangletown, 45th, schools, and transit.
What the Sellers Loved About Living Here
1. The walkability is amazing! There are tons of places to enjoy on 45th, Tangletown is a few minutes away, Green Lake and Gas Works Park.
2. We loved walking to nearby farmers’ markets, especially the Wallingford Farmers Market at Meridian Park, 2 blocks away!
3. Sitting on the porch swing is enjoyable year-round! We loved meeting all of our neighbors passing by.
4. Having two fenced yards is awesome, especially with dogs and kids.
5. Wally Pets and Bark ‘In Style are a few blocks away and we love the locally owned businesses to take care of our puppies.
6. Chutneys for Indian food and Djan’s for Thai food were our go-to spots!
7. If you need prescriptions, there’s Pharmaca, Walgreens, CVS and Bartell Drugs all within a few blocks!
8. Walking to Orange Theory on 45th to really get a serious workout in.
9. My husband enjoyed walking to QFC every night to pick up groceries and cook me dinner!
10. All of the original charm and character of the house!
