About This Home
Some homes are defined by their finishes. This one is defined by its position. Perched above the Puget Sound in the coveted Shorewood community of Burien, this property offers something that simply cannot be built, bought, or replicated at this price point: an unobstructed, front-row seat to one of the Pacific Northwest's most breathtaking waterways. Built in 1948 and spanning three levels with 3,050 square feet, this is a home that has been loved and is now ready for its next chapter. Yes, it needs work. The carpets, paint, cabinets, and fixtures are dated, and the exterior siding will need attention. But savvy buyers know that cosmetics are fixable. Location is not. What you're buying here is the land, the view, and the rare chance to pour your vision into a home without fear of over-improving. Comparable renovated properties in Shorewood command prices that make this an extraordinary entry point. Build your equity while you build your dream. The sprawling back deck runs the full length of the home and frames the Sound like a painting. Your morning coffee here will ruin you for anywhere else. Inside, a wall of windows in the main living area brings that same view indoors, anchored by a classic brick fireplace. This is a diamond in the rough, priced to reflect the work ahead with the reward waiting on the other side. Back on Market at no fault Seller.
