Description
Own a piece of Seattle history at The Fairfax, a distinguished Gothic Revival landmark designed in 1923 by prolific architect James E. Blackwell. This expansive, light-filled residence captures the building’s architectural texture, wrapping multiple corners with windows to the East & West, including a peaceful view across a cozy atrium which you can access (maybe you'd like to plant some flowers). High ceilings, original French doors, & oversized rooms meet a fresh, upscale remodel with LVP flooring & plush new carpeting. It has good light. It's quiet. Easy access with only 3 steps, great for bikes and strollers. Enjoy the rare benefit of no shared walls & a semi-private entry that heightens the quiet, residential feel. Modern comforts include a generous walk-in closet in the primary bedroom, a reimagined modern open kitchen, additional building storage, bike storage, & laundry just down the hall. The Fairfax is meticulously maintained and well managed, offering low monthly dues and a strong financial record with no special assessments in over 15 years. Plentiful nearby street parking adds everyday ease. Less than a block from the back entrance of Volunteer Park for concerts, picnics, the Conservatory, & near the Blaine/Harvard stairs with sweeping views of Lake Union & the Space Needle. Close to Capitol Hill’s dining & nightlife, or catch the #49 bus across the street with easy access to Downtown, the U-District, and SR-520. An exceptional home, ready for your enjoyment.
