Restoration of this Historic craftsman has been a labor of love over many years. Original details such as leaded glass, box beams, built ins & bench seats have all been carefully preserved while other elements were reimagined for modern living. This is a home you must see in person to truly appreciate! Extensive tilework is beautiful and functional, with radiant heat in the main floor & upstairs baths. Well placed skylights offset our long PNW Winters, and ductless heat pumps regulate temps on sunnier days. Lots of possibilities with two bedrooms on the main floor + two more upstairs. Lower level has extra finished space with a 3rd bath, outside entrance and dreamy laundry room. Don't get too comfortable inside though - the fully fenced backyard and full-width covered porch are perfect spots to host friends or visit with your neighbors. Prior to the current owners, the home's longest residents were Raymond and Olive Seward, who lived here from 1934 to 1990. Raymond founded the Physics department at nearby University of Puget Sound; Seward Hall is named after him and his wife. Incredibly convenient location, close to Proctor, the newly built Lowell Elementary and the Three Bridges District. Freeway access & waterfront are just down the hill in Old Town.
