About this home

Very spacious and private home close in to Burien Center. Bright and open out front with and expansive front lawn. Out back it is like a cottage in the woods on a massive lot. Room proportions are exceptional and would accommodate large social gatherings with ease. Kitchen has lots of windows and room for dining. The rec room downstairs runs the full length of the house with terrific S & E exposure. Zoned "O" for office it legally works equally well as a home or office with plenty of parking.

Office

The Office (O) Zone implements the Office Comprehensive Plan designation. The purpose of this zone is to establish and preserve areas for professional service related offices and mixed-use developments. The intent is to provide areas where low to moderate intensity office development and small scale support services can be concentrated, and where impacts of this use on the surrounding residential neighborhoods can be minimized.
