It’s not often you find this sense of calm while still being in the city. Set on one of Magnolia’s quietest streets, this west-facing early Northwest traditional home blends timeless character with thoughtful modern upgrades. From the moment you step inside, you’ll feel at ease as sunlight pours through upgraded windows onto classic hardwood floors and plaster walls. The main-level living room, anchored by a wood-burning fireplace, offers an inviting space to gather and entertain, while the lower-level media room with a gas fireplace provides additional room to relax and spread out. The upgraded kitchen is both functional and welcoming, and three generously-sized bedrooms offer comfort and flexibility for everyday living. Thoughtful details elevate the experience throughout, including a steam shower, built-in sound system, and solar window treatments. Step outside to a private, professionally landscaped backyard retreat with flagstone pavers and automated lighting – an ideal setting for summer dinners and effortless entertaining. Additional highlights include abundant storage, a sprinkler system, an attached garage, and a new roof and furnace, offering true turn-key living. All set on a coveted, long-established block with underground power lines, just minutes from Discovery Park, Magnolia Village, and downtown Seattle.
