1217 E Washington Avenue

Generous living spaces, storybook charm, and a private garden retreat come together in this distinctive 2,866 sqft Burlington home. Set along a low-traffic street within sight of Maiben Park, hand-hewn cedar shake siding gives the home wonderful character. Beautiful garden spaces, paver patios, and backyard privacy invite slow mornings with coffee, dinner outdoors, & afternoons spent tending the garden. Inside, the spectacular family room draws you in with vaulted ceilings, cedar-lined walls and ceiling, expansive picture windows, and the warm glow of a fireplace. It’s a room that makes you want to settle in and stay awhile. A versatile living room offers space for a dining area, while the eat-in kitchen provides a comfortable spot for everyday meals. Four bedrooms—two on the main floor and two upstairs—provide room to make yourself at home. A generous basement rec room adds space for movie nights, game days, and favorite hobbies, while semi-finished attic spaces offer excellent storage. A freshly renewed two-car garage with epoxy flooring, ample off-street parking, newer roofing, and an updated electrical panel bring everyday practicality to a home full of personality. Walk to downtown coffee and restaurants, enjoy nearby Maiben Park, or head out for Skagit Valley river walks, colorful spring tulip fields, farm stands, and adventures from saltwater shores to the North Cascades. Then come home to the best part: a place that feels like a retreat, right in the heart of it all.
