Built in 1907, this stately & elegant Craftsman home has been freshly renovated to offer the highest standard in contemporary amenities, while careful attention has been given to maintain the timeless design and gracious features of that era. Large windows fill the spacious rooms with bright light; the gas fireplace & the superb millwork featuring Cape Cod Beadboard wainscoting, create a gracious, inviting and comfortable environment.

Situated high on the eastern slope of Capitol Hill, the home offers territorial views of Lake Washington, the Bellevue skyline & the Cascades. Conveniently located only minutes from the lively civic and business centers of downtown Seattle, the U-District & the Eastside as well as the vibrant urban life of Capitol Hill's many parks, festivals, restaurants & nightlife.

The elegantly landscaped grounds emphasize native plants in an informal Northwest style. Special features include a stately "Mayberry" front porch with an old-fashioned swing & rocking chairs, a huge 28' x 13' split-level Cedar deck and a rooftop deck that offers panoramic views to the Cascades. Also featured is a unique Arbor Gate laden with climbing Roses, an intimate "mountain path" and a secluded Zen Garden, all nestled within groves of Bamboo, Lilac and Japanese Maples and shaded by a Willow purported to be the largest in Western Washington! At night, the 80+ fixture outdoor lighting system creates a magical, intimate space perfect for entertaining family & friends.
