For many years, this distinguished Alki residence was home to a respected author and scholar. Today, it offers a rare opportunity to own more than 3,000 square feet just moments from one of Seattle's most iconic beaches. Extensively prepared for its next owner, it combines grand scale, timeless character, and an unbeatable walkable location. Beautifully updated throughout, the home features complete interior and exterior painting, new carpeting, updated lighting, refreshed electrical devices, and numerous improvements that enhance both its appearance and everyday livability. The impressive three-level design unfolds with multiple living spaces, a dedicated home office, and a vaulted primary suite featuring a luxurious bath, spacious dressing area, and an expansive private deck overlooking lush, beautifully landscaped grounds. Upper skylights bathe the home in exceptional natural light, creating an inviting warmth throughout. Mature landscaping provides an uncommon sense of privacy from the street, while an expansive rear entertainment Trex deck and inviting outdoor spaces complete the outdoor living experience. Alki Beach, waterfront restaurants, neighborhood cafés, parks, and miles of shoreline are all just a few steps away. This is the kind of home that defines a neighborhood rather than simply occupying it.
