About this home
HUGE PRICE IMPROVEMENT-Sellers will look at offers Tuesday, 9/29. Lovingly held by the same family for more than 50 yrs, this is a truly rare opportunity to own one of West Seattle’s few private sandy beach homes. Completely remodeled in 2015, this exceptional 4-bdrm, 3+ bath home offers a private sandy beach & sweeping Sound and Olympic views. Watch sailboats catch the breeze, marine wildlife play, & some of the most spectacular sunsets Seattle has to offer. Expansive windows bring the beauty of the Sound indoors, while an open floor plan creates effortless flow between the kitchen, dining, & living spaces. The kitchen is beautifully appointed with state-of-the-art appliances, custom cabinetry, and premium finishes. But the magic of this home is truly found outside. Step directly onto the sand for paddleboarding or kayaking, let the dogs splash at the water’s edge, watch people build sandcastles. Keep your boat on the private buoy, gather friends to enjoy all the beach has to offer, and end the day around the waterfront firepit as the sun sinks behind the Olympics. This isn’t a vacation destination; it’s home. This waterfront lifestyle comes with exceptional city convenience. Downtown & Airport are minutes away, along with restaurants, shopping, parks, & the ferry. This home has been the setting for gatherings, celebrations, Summer days on the beach, & many memories. Now, this extraordinary piece of Seattle waterfront is ready for its next chapter. YOUR beach is waiting!!
Fauntleroy, located between Lincoln Park and the Fauntleroy Ferry Terminal, is a residential and waterfront Seattle neighborhood with a forested bluff and a working ferry dock. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Fauntleroy Way SW and SW Barton St junction, where a small cluster of cafes, a bakery counter, and everyday services meet ferry-bound foot traffic. The original Endolyne Joe’s anchors the local dining scene, while The Original Bakery keeps the morning rhythm steady. Fauntleroy Park’s creek trails and tall evergreens shape daily routes, and the ferry lanes add a salt-air edge. Housing leans to mid-century homes and view-oriented streets, with pockets of classic West Seattle bungalows. Lincoln Park’s shoreline paths and tide flats frame the outdoor tempo.
