Property Details

This 1947 corner cottage has so much to offer inside and out. The garden was featured in Seattle Met and the 2007 West Seattle Garden Tour. The history is intact inside, with hardwood floors, solid wood doors, original trim, and classic tile, alongside an updated kitchen with composite granite countertops, soft-close cabinets, and a large island open to the living room. Bedrooms in back are quiet and calm. The second bedroom opens directly to the backyard, making for a great home office, guest suite, or something in between. The backyard is a second living room where the sun hits all day. A hardscaped patio, a wisteria arbor, and a fire pit are designed for lingering, whether quiet coffees to start the day or long summer evenings with friends. The garden gives back all season: strawberries and blueberries in the raised beds, edible cherries, a gravenstein apple, grapes on the arbor, dahlias and irises, hundreds of tulips in spring. The backyard is low maintenance and water efficient, planned for calm enjoyment over the long haul. All that plus shed storage, driveway parking with EV charging and room for an RV, and DADU potential. High Point's managed parks, playgrounds, and running tracks are there to enjoy – but no dues. QED Coffee, Thriftway, Grillbird, High Point Library, and Camp Long are all a short walk. Bus to downtown. 5,250 sq ft NR3 corner lot. The cherry tree bears fruit in summer. You'll want to be here for that.
