Fall for the kind of home that makes you want to linger. Hardwood floors, coved ceilings and an arched fireplace set the tone, while handmade Spanish tile, stained glass and a J?tul wood-burning stove give this Victory Heights cottage layers of character all its own. Settle in by the fire on a rainy Seattle evening, curl up with a book in the loft, or follow the sunlight outside to a peaceful yard framed by towering Western Red Cedars. A generously sized kitchen is ready for everything from morning coffee to holiday baking, with new granite counters, appliances and handmade brass cabinet hardware. A fully remodeled bathroom continues the home's attention to detail with unique built-in storage, while a flexible guest room with custom, handcrafted Murphy bed make everyday living convenient. Upstairs, the loft with built-in bookshelves creates a tucked-away destination for reading, working or creating. Outside, enjoy quiet mornings, summer dinners and afternoons in a space designed for both privacy and connection. Underlying all this personality are meaningful investments: A/C, a substantial unfinished basement with excellent ceiling height offers an exciting opportunity to add finished living space with plumbing in place for a future full bath; heat pump, rebuilt fireplace chimneys, French drain, new wood stove, fencing and more add to significant infrastructure improvements. A home with stories, loads of individuality and room for what comes next. Creative. Cozy. Connected.
