About this property

Sunrise over the Cascades through towering cedars: this 1911 South Beacon Hill home sits on a fully fenced 6,952 sq ft corner lot built for indoor-outdoor living, with expansive decks and a pergola off the main level and mature trees giving real privacy in the city — 0.8 miles to light rail, with quick access to I-5. Inside, arched doorways, hardwood floors, and a brick fireplace hold the character of the original build, while nearly everything around them was renewed in 2021: quartz countertops, baths updated with a new tub, counters, sinks, and toilets, new lighting and ceiling fans in every room, and a new refrigerator, range, washer, dryer, and water heater. The lower level is its own world: separate entrance, second kitchen, dedicated laundry, on-demand hot water, and in-floor radiant heat with custom built-ins and high-end finishes. Two full kitchens, laundry up and down, and a private entrance give the layout rare flexibility. Original 1911 craftsmanship, 2020 updates.
