Set along a picturesque cherry blossom-lined street in the heart of the University District, this classic Craftsman is tucked into the walkable University District neighborhood, next to the UW, University Village, & two light rail stations. This 1914 Craftsman's has original millwork and built-ins, detailed wood trim and leaded-glass windows, a front porch set above the street where you can relax and begin or end your day. The living room invites you to enjoy a cozy fire, or spend time in the study with glass panel doors and a dining room with period light fixtures and an eat-in kitchen that flows onto the back patio and peaceful garden. The first floor also includes a bedroom and full bathroom. Upstairs are two more bedrooms, including the primary bedroom with attached bath, and a second full bathroom. Attached to the primary bedroom is a bonus space large enough for an office, nursery or yoga room to name just a few potential uses. An unfinished basement includes the laundry room, high ceilings and an exterior entrance that could become additional living space. In the backyard, there is an added bonus! A darling, 720 sq ft., cottage with income potential. It includes a working fireplace, kitchen, full bath, living room and a seperate laundry room for the cottage on the main floor and bedroom on the lower floor. This cottage has a separate address and utilities & is approved as a legal, non-conforming use, by the City of Seattle. In-City neighborhood near great schools!
