First time on the market. This solid 1973 split-entry Seattle home offers a rare opportunity for buyers looking to build equity in a well-maintained property with all major improvements already completed. The home presents excellent potential for renovation, cosmetic updates, or a live-in flip while enjoying comfortable living today. Key system upgrades have already been handled, including a newer roof & siding, new heat pump with air conditioning (in attic), LVP flooring, and a rebuilt deck overlooking the backyard garden. With the expensive projects done, buyers can focus on personalizing the interior and adding value over time. The home has also been pre-inspected & includes Home Warranty, for added confidence. Upstairs, you'll find a spacious living and dining area with a wood fireplace, and a sliding glass door leading to the deck overlooking the back yard. The adjacent kitchen includes bar seating so the cook can enjoy company! Down the hall are three bedrooms, including a primary bedroom with attached private bathroom & shower. The lower level rec room offers vintage character and bar area, plus access to the attached 2-car garage. A bonus workroom in the garage provides ideal space for hobbies, projects, storage, or seed starting. Previous owner was award-winning gardener! ~1.5 miles to 35-acre Lakeridge Park & RB Light Rail. A great opportunity for buyers seeking a Seattle home with strong bones, sweat equity potential, and room to make it their own.
