2315 26th Avenue ESeattle, WA 98112Price: $925,000

Offered for the first time in 45 years, this distinctive Northwest contemporary home is a rare Montlake opportunity. Built in 1976, it offers a refreshing departure from the traditional homes that define much of the neighborhood, with soaring ceilings, rich hardwood floors, abundant natural light, and an open floor plan that lives far larger than its 1,320 square feet. The thoughtfully designed layout features 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a spacious loft that is ideal as a home office, media room, reading retreat, guest space, or bonus room. Large windows invite the outdoors in, creating a warm, airy atmosphere and a wonderful connection to the surrounding landscape. Fresh interior paint, new carpet, and tasteful updates make the home move-in ready while leaving room for its next owner to add their own personal style. The location is exceptional. Situated directly across from the Washington Park Arboretum on a quiet, low-traffic street, you'll enjoy miles of walking trails, beautiful gardens, and one of Seattle's most treasured natural settings just outside your door. The easy-care lot allows you to spend less time maintaining a yard and more time enjoying everything this remarkable location has to offer. A rare bonus in Montlake, the property also offers off-street parking for up to four vehicles. Homes with this combination of architecture, location, and availability are seldom offered. Come experience this special home and imagine the possibilities.
