About This Home

Built in 1939, this Cape Cod sits in the quiet residential pocket between North Admiral and Genesee, Set on a 6,500 sq. ft. lot one block from Madison Middle School, on 45th and a short walk to PCC Market and the surrounding neighborhood businesses, the house reflects the rhythm of the community around it: walkable, established, and deeply residential. Inside, the home has retained the original proportions and warmth of its era while incorporating the updates that matter most today — refinished hardwood floors, updated electrical and plumbing systems, fresh interior and exterior paint, and a light-filled great room and kitchen that open naturally toward the backyard. The outdoor space features raised organic garden beds, mature landscaping, wild strawberries, huckleberries, irrigation, and a proper fire pit. A big basement is ideal for movie nights, your little gym, or crafting haven. The long driveway accommodates three+ cars, and the detached garage with its original wood floor now functions best as storage, workshop, or as your gardening outpost. This sweet West Seattle home offers a tree lined neighborhood, proximity to schools, transit and daily essentials.
