Description

Opportunity and flexibility in Fairmount. Updated for comfortable living today with uncommon potential for tomorrow, this classic brick home offers something increasingly difficult to find in West Seattle: a large, flat, fully fenced rear yard with paved alley access and strong future flexibility for DADU (buyer to verify). Set on a corner with convenient access off Findlay, the property combines traditional character with substantial system upgrades for long-term confidence. Refinished hardwood floors, fresh interior paint, new carpet and an updated kitchen create a move-in-ready feel, while major improvements—including extensive electrical updates (2023), furnace (2023), roof (2022), sewer relining (2024), new downstairs bath and professionally restored, tuck-pointed and sealed brick exterior (2025)—mean the heavy lifting has already been done. Central A/C adds year-round comfort. The main floor features a spacious living room with gas fireplace, formal dining room, two bedrooms, full bath and an oversized hall with built-in library shelving. Downstairs offers two additional bedrooms and a 3/4 bath—ideal for guests, hobbies, workspace, or flexible living needs. Attached one-car garage with EV charger. The standout: a rear yard with no significant trees, improved alley access, and the kind of usable space that opens doors for future possibilities—whether income generation, additional work-from-home space, or simply room to grow.
