About this home
One block from Magnolia Playfield & two from the Village, this renovated 1939 Craftsman pairs a 4BR/4BA main residence with a 2024 custom-built 2BR/2BA Guest House. Two front doors, two attached garages, one quiet green corner of Seattle. Main home runs roughly 3,000 sq ft across 4 bedrooms & 4 baths. Craftsman character carries through light filled living spaces & 2 covered porch balconies looking out over the treetops of inner Magnolia. There is room to spread out: a home office, a kitchen built around a commercial-grade gas range, & a finished lower level with its own exterior entry, a rec room for the loud hours & a dedicated wine room. Primary Suite is a retreat unto itself, with dual closets, a spa-inspired 5-piece bath remodeled in 2022, & a SW-facing deck that holds the long NW evening light. The systems are done. A heat pump went in during 2022, so the house stays cool through August heat & filtered when the smoke rolls in. New sewer line in 2021, new roof and hot water tank in 2025, garage wired for EV charging. Pre-inspected. The unglamorous work is behind you. Then there is the back house. Purpose-built in 2024, roughly 1,000 sq ft, 2 bedrooms, 2 baths, its own attached garage & pad off the alley. Rental ready from day one. Fill it how you see fit. The yard is a block away & the city mows it. Magnolia Playfield sits at the end of the street, coffee & dinner are 2 blocks & Discovery Park is mere minutes out. Two beautiful homes. One exceptional Magnolia property!
Southeast Magnolia, located between Union Bay and the Magnolia Bluff, is a residential and waterfront Seattle neighborhood with sweeping lake views and a quiet, wooded feel. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Magnolia Village stretch of 32nd Ave W near W McGraw St, where corner cafes, local boutiques, and everyday services set a low-key rhythm. Discovery Park acts as a defining backdrop, with forested trails and open meadows shaping daily routines. Streets feature mid-century ramblers, classic bungalows, and view homes stepping down toward the water. The shoreline and marinas add a salt-air edge, while pocket parks and viewpoints keep the landscape close. Cultural touchstones like the Magnolia Farmers Market and the historic Magnolia Branch of The Seattle Public Library anchor community life.
