About This Home

Rarely do charm and ease of ownership coexist. Lucky for you, this Crown Hill home underwent a massive studs-out remodel in 2015-16, delivering rare quality. Living on 2 levels plus a full basement, with a true 2-car garage, this home offers high-end finishes and thoughtful upgrades with top notch materials. The kitchen features Viking appliances, stunning quartz counters, and beautiful, thoughtfully designed cabinetry. The main floor is complemented by a gas fireplace and refinished true hardwood floors throughout the main living areas. The home is situated on three levels. The bright primary suite sits one floor below the main level and is a true retreat, with a spa-like bath featuring a temperature-controlled shower panel and body jets, plus a large walk-in closet! When Seattle gets cool again, wool carpet throughout and heated bathroom floors add that extra warmth. Nearly every major system has been replaced, offering the next owner true peace of mind and easy ownership. The bonus basement features a workbench and dedicated storage, effectively giving you a third functional level with egress. Enjoy a low-maintenance yard, an amazing deck with built-in seating, a gas hookup for the BBQ, and a hot tub! The location can't be beat: blocks to grocery stores such as Met Market, restaurants, and coffee shops, and just a few blocks to many major bus lines. This is a rare chance to own a fully remodeled, high-end home with nothing left to do but move in. Truly not to be missed!
