About this property

Perched above mature flowering gardens with exceptional privacy, this lovely Portage Bay view home is on the market for the first time in nearly 40 years. Two levels capture the morning views as the sun rises over the Cascade Mountains, through the Montlake Cut & past the sailboats of the Seattle & Queen City Yacht Clubs. Updated windows invite the light across newly refinished oak hardwood floors, highlighting a spacious, welcoming floor plan. The main living area features a gas fireplace & adjoining dining space. The updated kitchen offers granite countertops, stainless steel appliances & abundant storage. 3 generously-sized bedrooms, full bath & convenient storage room with washer/dryer complete the main level. Bonus finished attic space with built-in bunks & twin desks creates the perfect spot for homework or working from home. The lower level provides flexibility, with a large living area centered around a 2nd fireplace, another kitchen, bedroom, den/office, full bath & utility room—ideal for guests, a MIL suite, rental potential, or extended living space. Storage is abundant throughout, with built-ins & closets designed to serve for years to come. Tuned-in with A/C, completely rewired, new insulation, paint & carpet. Seamless indoor-outdoor living; enjoy bay views from the upper deck, cozy evenings under the covered lower patio, or relax in the private garden patio with hot tub. Detached garage + off-street parking pad. This beloved home is ready for its next chapter.
