317 north 160th place

Tucked into one of Shoreline’s most private cottage communities, the AIA award-winning Greenwood Avenue Cottages, this three-bedroom home offers a combination of character, efficiency, and convenience. Set among stunning grounds and bordering a community garden, it feels quiet while staying close to everything. West-facing front sitting porch welcomes you home. Vaulted ceilings and skylights bring in natural light. Newly refinished hardwood floors and freshly painted interiors give the home a clean, move-in-ready feel. The main level holds the primary bedroom, with French doors opening to a second private porch, plus a full bath and laundry, an ideal setup for one-level living. The lower level adds a second bedroom, flexible bonus space, and a large storage room with room for a second laundry or utility area. Upstairs, the loft/third bedroom works equally well as a guest room, home office, media room, or studio. At 1009 square feet, the home includes a mini-split heating and A/C system, a standalone gas fireplace, and a fully-owned 2.2 kW photovoltaic solar array that helps offset annual electricity costs. An individual secure garage. Residents also share a Commons building for gatherings, celebrations, and occasional overnight guests. Blocks from the planned Shoreline Place redevelopment and close to light rail and Interurban Trail access, the home pairs a serene setting with strong access to Shoreline, Seattle, and beyond. Truly a one-of-a-kind community!
