1519 1st Avenue N Seattle, WA 98109

Welcome to cherished Queen Anne Hill and its village feel while minutes to Downtown Seattle and Space Needle with this charming, fully restored Craftsman home.

An inviting facade softened by cream-colored hydrangea and old rose borders. A sanctuary haven-garden lies behind the home.

The front porch adds a comforting presence to the home.: a place for intimate conversations or reading a good book.

The foyer is the perfect introduction to the rest of the home with its old growth fir built-in bench with storage below it, railing and leaded windows.

From the foyer, a series of pocket glass doors create versatility to living and dining rooms.

The windows in the home have been replaced with new custom ones, some with stained windows or leaded designs.

Cozy up by the wood fireplace during cooler seasons. The room is large enough for fun gatherings between friends and naturally flows into the dining room.

Living and dining rooms are connected yet can be made more intimate by closing the pocket doors.

The perfect built-ins for china, glass, silverware and tablecloths are original to the home with its crystal knobs and beautiful leaded glass doors.

The room is perfectly sized for special dinner parties between friends.

From this room, one feels in complete communion with nature thanks to the mature birch tree in the backyard which acts as a natural privacy screen & natural air conditioning in the upper primary bedroom.

Looking in the dining room from the garden. Details of the Art Deco stained windows.

View from the backyard showcasing both dining and kitchen from the lawn area.

View from the dining to the kitchen eating nook. Detail of the wainscoting which was added to blend with the original woodwork at the time of the kitchen restoration.

Granite countertops, built-in pantry + china cabinetry: a kitchen designed for the most demanding cooks and perfect for entertaining. The restoration was done to maximize space and storage with durability in mind using high quality cherry custom cabinetry. The room flows perfectly with the rest of the house and its period details.

Woodwork details. The antique stove was fully restored and offers efficiency and aesthetic, perfect for preparing slow-cooking dishes as well as desserts. A piece of art in itself.

Half bath next to the kitchen flows with the kitchen coloring and finishes. Note that all remodeled products are using real wood (no MDF in the house).

Open the French doors to let the fresh air in and listen to bird songs.

Hard to believe that vibrant Queen Anne Avenue is one street below.

Take the meandering stone path to enjoy additional layers of garden and outdoor entertaining.

Let's explore the upstairs: sizable primary bedroom, 2 additional bedrooms and full bathroom

The primary bedroom is sizable and could be used as a family room if desired. Here one feels suspended in the elements with territorial views, the Olympics profiling in the distance and glowing sunsets. Note that there are fir floors under the carpets. Part of the wall-to-wall carpeting was cut out in the walk-in closet to expose the wood floors.

View of the primary bedroom from the outside.

2nd bedroom with its walk-in closet. A light and airy room.

Full bathroom with original porcelain tiled flooring & cast-iron soaking tub.

The third bedroom with its luxurious custom-built walk-in closet maximizing storage.

The lower level was fully finished for functionality and could be converted into separate living space if desired (great guest quarters). The woodwork on this level was added at the time of the remodel to mimic the main and upper-levels craftsmanship.

Family room/media room. This space flows into the bedroom with privacy pocket door.

Office/den and on the right side, the laundry room

Fabulous tree canopy attracting small birds, filtering harsh summer sun rays and acting as a privacy screen, making this yard a true haven for humans and wildlife.

The perfect combination of grass, patio and herbaceous borders.

The hillside was re-designed with natural handpicked rockery acting as retaining walls, flower beds and meandering stone path.

The garage was recently fully redone, its roof is now used as a second tiered patio. Rare are properties on the hill which enjoy back-alley parking and garage.

The Space Needle and Downtown Seattle are minutes away. Incredible walkability to stores, restaurants and cafes one street away with Queen Anne Avenue. Enjoy village feel and urban lifestyle all in one.
