This is a very charming, bright and comfortable two-bedroom bungalow perfect for a single person or couple who need an extra room for an office, or for a small family. The bungalow has been remodeled with an open floor plan and features a spacious custom kitchen with lots of tile counter space and a peninsula that flows into the living area. The house is owned by an artist and has many custom and unique features, such as a vintage Seattle Schools sink in the kitchen, custom built cabinets, hardware, open shelving with industrial brackets etc. It also features hardwood floors throughout and a lovely brand new slate tile shower. Light comes through the windows all day and the full light back door opens out onto a back patio and garden area with wrought iron dining set that is perfect for outdoor dining.
