10611 2nd place southwest

This charming cottage-style oasis in Seattle's Top Hat neighborhood comes with a rare 720 sq ft detached garage/shop and a maturing garden ready to make your own. The house was originally built in 1934 and was thoughtfully rebuilt from the studs up in 2014 with new framing, insulation, electrical, plumbing, roof, HardiePlank siding, Milgard windows, ductless mini-splits, tankless gas water heater, and a complete kitchen and bath remodel (all permitted). Beautiful bamboo flooring runs throughout the home, while the spacious kitchen features vaulted ceilings, dining area, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and gas range. The home is also wired for electric range and dryer if preferred to gas. The loft space above the living room provides an ideal setting for a home office, reading nook, or creative retreat. The fully fenced yard offers room for gardening, pets, entertaining, or simply relaxing away from the city. Conveniently located with easy access to shopping, restaurants, parks, and uncomplicated routes to downtown Seattle, Burien, SeaTac, Renton, and beyond.
