1217 SW 23rd Street

Built in 1930, beautifully remodeled, and still keeping life interesting—this grand lady has style, space, and a few curves where you’d normally expect straight lines. Let’s address those curves upfront: the home has significant, identified foundation issues, with visibly and noticeably uneven floors. If your cakes have never baked level, the kitchen may finally offer you a credible alibi! The seller is willing to arrange foundation repairs paid at closing or an escrow for repairs, subject to agreed terms and applicable closing requirements. There’s plenty to love here: charming arched doorways, a spacious living room, a generous dining area, and a gorgeous kitchen featuring white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a herringbone backsplash. Beautiful finishes, abundant natural light, and a dedicated laundry space make the thoughtful renovation shine. Outside, the expansive lot offers room to gather, garden, and enjoy. A large covered patio, attractive fencing, and a detached garage behind the fence round out the space. Permanent holiday lights, solar fence lighting, exterior solar motion lights, security cameras, and guttering add practical touches with a little sparkle. Located near historic Capitol Hill and the Wheeler District, this home pairs vintage personality with a fresh look and an opportunity to address the work still needed. Come appreciate the renovation, explore the possibilities, and give this grand lady her next chapter.
