8053 Brooklyn Avenue NE

Welcome home to this enchanting Tudor-inspired cottage in the heart of Maple Leaf — where storybook curb appeal, classic craftsmanship, and an unbeatable location come together. With Maple Leaf Park literally steps from your front door, the sprawling green fields, walking trails, and playground feel like a natural extension of your own backyard. The iconic brick chimney, pitched roofline, and arched entry set the tone before you even step inside. Within, refinished hardwood floors and elegant crown molding flow from a warm, light-filled living room anchored by a handsome tile fireplace to a gracious formal dining room. The updated kitchen delights with rich wood cabinetry, subway tile backsplash, and a gas range — and opens to a sun-drenched breakfast nook wrapped in windows overlooking a serene backdrop of mature arborvitaes. Three well-proportioned bedrooms, a stylishly appointed full bath, and an attached garage round out the main footprint. Outside, a fully-fenced backyard with a pergola, mature fruit trees, rain barrels, and a generous lawn creates a private retreat perfect for entertaining or quiet summer evenings. The unfinished basement offers a fully equipped workshop and ample storage — a true bonus for the hobbyist or tinkerer. All of this in one of Seattle’s most beloved neighborhoods, with Olympic Mountain views visible from above and everything Maple Leaf has to offer just outside your door!
