About the Listing 10121 - 59786

Quality craftsmanship and exceptional upside define this rare Ballard opportunity. Set back from the street, this cedar-shingled cottage sits on a private lot behind mature bamboo with a deep backyard and multiple outbuildings ready for reimagining. Original hardwood floors, built-in shelving, period lighting, and vintage architectural details deliver authentic character, while updated plumbing, electrical, and an electrical panel replaced in the early 2000s provide a solid starting point, buyer to verify all information. The efficient floor plan is well suited for a thoughtful renovation. Sold as-is. Ideal for investors or buyers looking to build equity in a neighborhood where quality renovations continue to command a premium. Cash, FHA 203(k), Fannie Mae HomeStyle, hard money, and other renovation financing may be suitable. Pre-offer inspections welcomed. Ideally located between Ballard and Fremont with convenient access to Downtown Seattle, South Lake Union, and major commuter routes. Future Ballard Link light rail adds long-term appeal. Zoned for West Woodland Elementary, Hamilton International Middle, and Ballard High School. Minutes to Ballard Avenue, the Sunday Farmers Market, parks, breweries, cafés, and restaurants. Opportunities with this combination of location, character, and upside are increasingly hard to find.
