About this home
Simply stunning 180 degree western, sweeping views of Puget Sound that will knock your socks off. This rare, 1 owner home has never been on the market. Located in one of the most desirable dead-end streets in West Seattle. Just a stones throw away from Schmitz Park. Here is your chance to call this Mid Century Modern your own. An open floor plan of many opportunities. Authentic features well maintained: 3bd 2 bth, vaulted beamed ceilings is turn-key now with your updates later. This won't last!
Awesome original 1959 home in great condition. Clearly been loved and cared for inside and out. Original bath rooms, and much older kitchen, but the house has amazing potential. Stunning view to the west/north, however home directly next door...
could go up a level and block a majority of this view. Despite this, what a cool house with great possibilities.
