The Center of the Universe is just down the street, but perhaps THIS is the actual center, as this little gem is perfectly situated between Fremont and Ballard. Walk-able to both, and to so much more. Like Ross Park, your choice of breweries, Trader Joe’s, and the Burke Gilman Trail to name a few. But hey, I think we’re glossing over the important part here…the house, where a new roof was installed in 2025, and updated electrical in 2024. Designed for open living between the kitchen, dining and living rooms. Custom built-ins line the wall of the multi-use room, which can be utilized as a larger dining room, or extra sitting space to read and relax. The living room is west facing, bringing in excellent natural light, and the house sits above the sidewalk, providing privacy while taking in a movie. The kitchen has additional dining space, splashed with colorful wallpaper and style throughout. Sliding glass doors open to the side and back yards, bringing in fresh air and perfect for Fido. One-level living throughout means no stairs, with three bedrooms and an additional bathroom for guests. The fenced-in back yard is private and low maintenance, and the large shed with electricity keeps things dry while storing. Speaking of storage, there is a large crawl space accessible from the north side of the home, previously utilized for storage, keeping things dry throughout the year. This unfinished sq. ftg. is NOT included in sq. ftg. listed. Bonus!
