Tucked on a quiet residential street in desirable Lakewood, this turnkey 4-bedroom, 1.75-bath mid-century blends timeless design, modern updates, and exceptional flexibility just moments from Columbia City, Genesee Park, and Lake Washington. Thoughtfully updated while preserving its original character, the home features a newer roof, central A/C, furnace, water heater, updated lighting, upgraded appliances including gas cooking, and abundant storage. Light-filled living spaces feature vaulted ceilings, skylights, hardwood floors, large picture windows, and a cozy wood-burning fireplace.

Enjoy easy access to Columbia City’s restaurants, cafés, PCC Market, farmers market, and light rail, along with nearby Genesee Park, the off-leash dog park, ball fields, Lake Washington, and convenient commutes via I-90 and I-5. A rare opportunity to own a beautifully updated home with true flexibility in one of South Seattle’s most sought-after neighborhoods.
