About this home

Some houses come finished, others are waiting for someone to see what they could become. Tucked away on a quiet dead-end street just off Beach Drive, this 1910 home offers a combination of historic character, generous proportions and a private setting. At just over 15,000 square feet, the property feels more like a hidden retreat than a typical city lot, with mature trees and an urban-forest backdrop creating remarkable privacy. The house itself is ready for a new chapter. A version of the classic Four Square-style home, it retains the gracious scale and craftsmanship of its era: Parquet flooring, high ceilings, large rooms, original woodwork, box-beam ceilings, formal dining rm, Arts & Crafts tile (gas) fireplace and a big kitchen w/a wall of windows bringing the outdoors into the heart of the home. A wood stove adds to its warm, old-house character. The home was moved onto a substantial new foundation in 1998, and plans are available, providing an excellent starting point for someone ready to thoughtfully restore and reimagine the property. The lot offers room to dream, garden, create outdoor living spaces and explore. The mature landscape and existing site configuration make this a property where privacy and setting are the draw. Bring your architect, contractor and imagination. For the right buyer, this could be the chance to bring a remarkable old home back to life while creating a private retreat in one of West Seattle's most sought-after settings. As-Is!
