A rare opportunity to update and renovate in your own style and build equity in a prime location. Classic 1914 Foursquare on a quiet North Capitol Hill street, blending timeless charm with amazing views. Enjoy sweeping vistas of Lake Union, Lake Washington, and the full mountain lineup from the Olympics to the Cascades. A short walk to neighborhood parks, this 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home sits on a 4,000 sq ft lot and offers a rare two-car garage with flex outdoor space above and potential to build up, plus a fully fenced front yard—perfect for BBQs, entertaining, and pets. Hardwoods run throughout the home, complemented by fresh interior paint and new carpet. High ceilings enhance the sense of space and light. The main floor features a charming den/office, a cozy fireplace, an open flow from the kitchen to the dining room, and a bonus library-sitting room—ideal for reading, relaxing, or hosting intimate gatherings. Unfinished basement with 7' ceilings with great potential. Bring your vision and there are endless opportunities! Upstairs, the spacious primary suite includes an ensuite bath and sweeping views of the lakes and mountains. A full second bath serves the additional three bedrooms. The unfinished basement is a blank canvas ready to become a media room, gym, or additional living space. A special opportunity to own a classic Capitol Hill home with iconic views, a sought after street, and future potential.
