The story
- Basement
Sweet spot in Roosevelt unlocked; vibrancy of the neighborhood coupled with the serenity of Brooklyn Ave. Tucked onto a dead-end street, this darling home pairs original OWC character with an effective year built of 2013, bridging craftsmanship with a modern way of living. Covered front porch, warm hardwood floors inside. Out back, the unusually generous lot leaves room to breathe, garden, gather or dream up what comes next. Plenty of coveted off-street parking for up to four cars, although living here makes the car surprisingly optional. At the end of the street, a pedestrian path slips you directly into Froula Playground, turning the neighborhood into an extension of the backyard. Head the other direction and Roosevelt HS, neighborhood restaurants, shops, everyday essentials and the Roosevelt Link station are all within easy walking distance. Green Lake lies just to the west, while the trails and green spaces of Cowen and Ravenna unfold to the south. Weekend brunch at Portage Bay, morning coffee at Armistice, a burger at Rain City; favorites quickly become routines and errands rarely require a car. Lower level adds another HUGE dimension: large permitted studio ADU offering genuine flexibility for multigenerational living, extended stays, work-from-home separation or rental income. The opportunity for your present and future!
