Description

The rarest of finds. A meticulously maintained and lovingly updated 1909 home on venerated Federal Avenue East, set on multiple lots spanning nearly 33,000 sf adjacent to Volunteer Park. An urban oasis with views across Lake Union to Gas Works Park and the Olympic Mountains. Featured in Seattle architectural history books and a regular stop on the city’s architectural tours. The exceptionally private, Randy Allworth designed gardens surround an array of recreational amenities: a heated pergola with fireplace, a putting green, a swimming pool and hot tub, and a parking area that easily doubles as a sports court. Secure garage parking for three cars and off-street parking for at least three more. Extensive interior and site renovations by Lockhart Suver harmonize contemporary conveniences with classic design, while gracious walls and spaces for art are illuminated by professionally designed lighting systems. Upstairs offers three en-suite bedrooms and two bedrooms with a shared bath. The large basement provides room for crafts, a gym, ample storage, a wine cellar, and group recreation, while the third floor, with a 3/4 bath, easily serves as an office, studio, or guest suite. A truly irreplaceable legacy property, this remarkable residence offers the rare opportunity to enjoy timeless architectural pedigree, resort-caliber outdoor living, and modern comfort in one of Seattle’s most coveted settings.
