609 NW 74th Street

Originally built in 1929, this home is one of Seattle’s twelve Lynne White restorations, known for their uncompromising quality and craftsmanship in every detail. Flat panel wainscoting and artist-installed tiling greet you in the foyer; this opens into an elegant, light-filled great room with newly refinished douglas fir floors and a traditional wood-burning fireplace. The open floor plan creates a natural gathering space, ideal for hosting generously sized parties or drawing people together on ordinary evenings. Every detail has received careful attention, evidenced by exquisite millwork, precision joinery, an oversized farmhouse sink, and marble countertops. The main floor is completed with a south-facing sunroom (offering endless possibilities as an office, guest room, music room, library, or playroom), window seats with storage, a powder room, and French doors that open to a deck and fenced back yard. Outside, you’ll find plumbing for a BBQ, a hot tub nestled under Norway spruce trees, a fire pit, and professional landscaping and hardscaping. Upstairs, the primary suite includes a bonus sitting room with gas fireplace (an ideal office or nursery), beadboard wainscoting on the ceiling, and a beautiful walk-in shower. An additional bedroom opens to an ensuite bath. In the basement: a 4th bedroom, family room, and full bath. The oversized attached garage includes an additional storage closet. All on a flat, quiet street three blocks to all things Phinney Ridge!
