17914 50th Avenue S

Step inside this thoughtfully reimagined 1959 home, lovingly renovated over the past seven years to honor the original character rather than erase it. You’ll feel it the moment you walk in. Every decision was made with purpose, every improvement made for better living. Walls removed to capture the sunrise and connect the kitchen to living spaces. Handcrafted wood details, carefully selected materials, and exquisite craftmanship are evident throughout. Meaningful upgrades cohesively married with original hardwood floors, a classic stone fireplace, abundant natural light and an effortless flow to the east-facing deck. Downstairs, a bright and welcoming lower level that's equal parts creative and unexpectedly cool, with its exposed beams, a warm wood ceiling, second fireplace, custom bar, beautifully updated bath, and direct backyard access. Perfect for movie nights, guests, hobbies, or simply spreading out. The thoughtful improvements continue behind the scenes with central A/C, updated furnace, 200-amp electrical service, added insulation for comfort and quiet, and years of careful investment throughout. Then there's the location: remarkably convenient to Burien, Seattle, Sea-Tac Airport, shopping, parks, schools, and light rail—yet surprisingly peaceful, without the freeway or airport noise. Some homes impress you when you walk through the front door. The best ones quietly help you imagine a life there. This feels like one of those homes.
