About this property

Tucked into the trees above Colman Park, this 1916 Craftsman delivers something rare in Seattle: real privacy without giving up the city. Lake Washington is a three-minute walk down a park trail, downtown is less than 15 minutes away, and I-90 is just five minutes from home. Inside, 2,285 square feet across three levels offers plenty of room to spread out, with hardwood floors, coved ceilings, built-ins, a wood-burning fireplace, dining room, and walk-in pantry. Upstairs, the primary suite has its own bath and walk-in closet. Downstairs, the 479-square-foot basement, finished in 2018, works as a fourth bedroom, family room, guest space, or home office, with another finished room for hobbies, storage, or a workshop. A large, secure crawl space takes care of the rest. The sellers handled the improvements that matter, including new windows and a new deck in 2016, a new roof in 2024, and a new combination boiler in 2026. Skylights bring in natural light, the detached carport provides covered parking, and the private 3,870-square-foot wooded lot offers partial territorial views with remarkably few nearby neighbors. It is in-city treehouse living with flexible space, thoughtful updates, and Lake Washington just down the path.
