1939 E Crescent Drive

Cinematic Cascade Mountain views take center stage stretching from Mt Baker across the Arboretum with Lake Washington as the backdrop all from this well preserved 1920s Colonial where city life softens into nature. Skip the stairs from Crescent and opt to park in the private alley’s two-car garage, where a few gentle steps carry you through a sunny backyard directly into the heart of the home: the kitchen. Here, timeless finishes and openness create the kind of everyday gathering place that naturally draws friends. It’s a space designed for morning routines, after-school snacks, and unhurried weekend breakfasts with the doors open to fresh air and the garden. The main level boasts of oak floors, mahogany wrapped windows and a living room centered on a Batchelder tile fireplace. The open center hall staircase leads to three bedrooms and two baths including a serene primary suite with its own balcony—a front-row seat to storybook PNW lake and mountain views. It’s the sort of outlook that quietly marks the seasons and reminds you why you live here. The lower level is home to a large family room, guest suite with 3/4 bathroom, laundry and storage. With Interlaken Park at your doorstep and Volunteer Park just four blocks west, this is a setting where trails, trees, and open green space feel like an extension of your own yard. Graceful, practical, and surrounded by nature, this Colonial offers a rare blend of heritage charm and everyday livability.
