Property Description
Dear Whittier, There is something wonderfully uncomplicated about a really good house. This classic 1944 brick home pairs original architectural details, sweetly intact, with thoughtful modern updates seamlessly woven in for today. Warm hardwoods and beautifully proportioned spaces unfold across 3 bedrooms + 2 baths, while a welcoming front porch offers a front-row seat to the vibrant rhythm of Whittier Heights. Out back, life gets considerably bigger. A generous fenced yard and private patio grotto with outdoor fireplace create an unexpected extension of the home, made for long dinners, gardening, play + gatherings that turn into Pacific Northwest nights lingering well after sunset. A garage + potting shed add increasingly rare practicality and plenty of room for the gear that comes with embracing all the Northwest has to offer. Beyond the doorstep, Whittier Heights is a creative, connected community where block parties, impromptu concerts + spontaneous gatherings still happen organically. Stroll to beloved local shops, restaurants, cafés, parks + neighborhood favorites, with the best of Ballard just beyond. Not oversized. Not overdone. Just a really sweet house with a wonderfully big life in a neighborhood with a heartbeat. Bonus alert - Relocation offers buyers a credit of up to $10,000 toward closing costs and/or a home warranty. With love, Your next chapter.
