A rare opportunity in a prime location. Perched on the top of Queen Anne, this darling home lives like the perfect condo alternative, without the dues! Tucked on a quiet alley-side lot, you’re moments from Big Howe Park, top-rated schools, Macrina, Targy's, Ken's Market and destination restaurants that make Queen Anne one of the city’s most sought-after neighborhoods. A rare price point for a home on the hill, this thoughtfully designed 1918 home feels bright, efficient, and welcoming. Fresh interior paint and polished hardwood floors create a move-in-ready backdrop for your personal style. The kitchen has elegant honed marble countertops, offering a sophisticated finish, pairing beautifully with the home’s charm, and provides generous prep space. The kitchen opens to a dining area, which leads into the family room, making the open floor plan great for entertaining and livability. Two bedrooms offer flexibility - large bathroom on the main floor w/marble counters and smart toilet and a second bedroom upstairs, expands the living space and has upside potential. The nicely redone 220 square foot garage adds to the possibilities. Whether you envision a dedicated office, home gym, or creative retreat, this versatile space adapts to your lifestyle. It’s the bonus space today’s buyers crave. Charming, efficient, and exceptionally located, this home offers the independence of single-family home living with low-maintenance ease —all in the heart of Queen Anne.
