Drink in the sunset views from this lower Phinney charmer. Multiple west-facing decks deliver a commanding perspective over Ballard with the Olympic Mountains as a backdrop, the perfect setting for summer dinners, weekend gatherings, or a quiet glass of wine as the sky lights up. Inside, 1926 character meets thoughtful updates. The front room features a perfect-blue color wash, period wood-burning fireplace and built-ins, and open dining room with plentiful windows and stylish lighting. The remodeled kitchen is efficient and bespoke, with quartz counters, white shaker cabinetry, subway tile, stainless appliances, a Fisher & Paykel range, and a sunny breakfast nook with heated terracotta floor. Two bedrooms and a full bath complete the main level. Upstairs, find a generous primary bedroom with ensuite bath and a guest bedroom with built-in shelving and westerly view; this could double as an office space. The finished lower level adds valuable bonus space for a rec room, media room, home office, or play area. Outside, a fully fenced yard with patio, pergola, and terraced garden invites easy outdoor living. Just steps to West Woodland Elementary and moments to the shops, restaurants, and pubs of Ballard and Phinney Ridge, this is a laid-back Seattle neighborhood where life happens outdoors and neighbors know each other.
