Tucked into the vibrant and coveted Ridgecrest neighborhood of Shoreline, this creatively charged cottage is a thoughtfully prepped canvas waiting for its next steward. A sun-kissed garden is ready for revival, where you'll be greeted by a beautiful, white-flowered Magnolia tree, soon to bloom, as well as an Asian pear, Italian plum, poppies, grape vines and much more, all adding seasonal beauty and the promise of future harvests and butterflies. An insulated detached space offers a peaceful retreat for a yoga or meditation studio, creative studio, or playroom, while a generous 733 sq ft flexible shed/workspace opens the door to endless possibilities. Ample driveway parking for a boat, RV, and off-street space for gatherings with friends are the cherry on top. Ideally located just minutes from the light rail, highly rated schools, beautiful parks and trails, the beloved library, and a variety of restaurants, this home blends good bones, comfort, and convenience. Bring your vision, creative energy, and yes, a fresh can of paint, and shape the next chapter of this charming cottage. Pre-inspected and ready to inspire.
