Some homes have soul. This 1917 Colonial just off Ravenna Boulevard has it in abundance. The character announces itself immediately: original oak hardwoods on the main floor, double moulding in the living room, a beautifully wallpapered dining room, and a breakfast table passed from owner to owner since the beginning. Details that simply cannot be replicated. Sweeping Cascade Mountain vistas and unobstructed green space carry across every level, each season bringing its own color and light. Upstairs, four bedrooms including a primary that opens onto its own deck, all on original fir floors aged gracefully over a century. Two of the bedrooms take in the big Cascade views, and a fully updated bathroom serves the floor. The main floor flows in a natural circle from formal entry through sun-drenched living and dining spaces, a kitchen opening onto the deck, and a convenient powder room. Radiant heat keeps every room evenly warm without noise. This home entertains as well as it lives. Step off the deck into a generous backyard where there is room for a fire pit and gatherings. Downstairs surprises: a warm family room with a wood-burning fireplace, a three-quarter updated bathroom, a bedroom with backyard and Cascade views, plus storage, laundry, and utilities. UW campus, two light rail stops, U-Village, Ravenna Park, Cowen Park, Green Lake, coffee shops, and restaurants are minutes away. Once you step through the front gate, you will know this one is different.
