The story
- Basement
On a verdant curve of 13th Avenue East, this classic 1906 Craftsman occupies a particularly bucolic corner of North Capitol Hill and looks on to an elevated street creating visual appeal and enhanced privacy. Thoughtfully updated for modern living, the home retains the gracious proportions and period details that define its character. A welcoming entry opens to formal living and dining rooms, while the beautifully updated eat-in kitchen offers abundant workspace, built-ins and a breakfast nook. French doors connect the living room to a fully fenced patio extending the length of the home, creating an effortless flow outdoors. Upstairs, an airy window-lined landing offers a quiet place to read or create. The serene primary suite features two walk-in closets and an en-suite bathroom, joined by two additional bedrooms and a full bath. A spiral stair leads to the top-floor retreat—an inspired office or fourth bedroom—with sweeping views of the Seattle skyline, Puget Sound and Olympic Mountains. A finished lower level adds media, laundry, storage and utility room. Steps from Volunteer Park and 15th Avenue, the home sits along an Olmsted Brothers–designed street conceived as a natural extension of the park—an enduring landscape of mature trees, graceful curves and distinctly Seattle beauty.
