Rare Ravenna offering blending timeless character with artisan craftsmanship and health-conscious design. Originally built in 1910 & extensively reinvented, this 2-bedroom, 2-bath home lives larger than its ~1,600 sq ft. Lifted in 1991, a fully rebarred, earthquake-engineered foundation was newly built—not a retrofit—adding a second level. Updated electrical, copper plumbing, & new sewer line provide long-term confidence. Inside, a European boatwright’s hand is unmistakable: vertical-grain fir, custom millwork, museum-quality finishes. The chef’s kitchen pairs Sub-Zero & Miele appliances with handcrafted cabinetry, European & recycled-glass tile. Sound-insulated floors & walls ensure quiet privacy for work & guests; non-toxic materials & allergen-conscious choices prioritize wellness throughout. Offered for the first time in 38 years, every decision was made for longevity & daily beauty—neither a flip nor a stepping stone. Recent upgrades: new roof and skylights (2022), heating (2023), exterior paint (2024), fence (2025), with curated improvements into 2026. A clear cedar deck & established gardens offer a serene, low-maintenance retreat. Seattle’s bicycle greenway runs right in front, linking to Green Lake, Magnuson, the Burke-Gilman Trail, & beyond. Two blocks to light rail, with UW, markets, parks, & downtown all within effortless reach. A rare fusion of enduring quality, architectural character, & elevated livability in one of Seattle’s most sought-after enclaves.
