After many wonderful memories were made here, this one owner home is ready for its next chapter. Lovingly maintained over the years, the original hardwood floors have recently been uncovered, bringing back a touch of the home's timeless character. Fresh interior paint gives the spaces a bright, refreshed feel, while the recently replaced roof provides added peace of mind. The terrific layout features 3 bedrooms on the main floor, including a great primary ensuite. The daylight basement offers valuable flexibility for a rec room, home office, guest space, or whatever life calls for. Two fireplaces add warmth and charm, while the attached 2-car garage provides everyday convenience. The huge, level backyard has plenty of space to garden, play, entertain, or simply enjoy the outdoors. Located in the desirable Houghton area, this home is close to parks, shops, restaurants, waterfront activities, and all the energy of downtown Kirkland, with easy access to Bellevue and Seattle, and within the award-winning Lake Washington School District. A home with history, space, and plenty of potential, ready for its next happy homeowner!
