One of the smartest moves in real estate is to buy a home with big potential in a great neighborhood. Here’s your chance. Just moments from the heart of the Alaska Junction, this 1927 classic has been lovingly held by the same owner for 60 years and is now ready for its next chapter. Full of vintage character and partial Sound views from the second story, this is an opportunity for handy buyers, renovators, or investors to bring fresh vision and build real value over time. Much of the heavy lifting has already been done, including newer roof, furnace, windows, hot water tank, and updated plumbing. Finished basement ADU with kitchen, 1 bedroom, and 3/4 bath offers flexibility while you update the upper levels and rental income potential in the longer term (buyer to verify). Alley access to detached 1-car garage. Restore, reimagine, and make the most of a rare opportunity in one of West Seattle’s most sought-after neighborhoods.
