The Ballard house dates back to 1905 when it was likely a farm house. It has since been a family home now occupied by a retired architect and his former journalist wife. They live between Seattle and Australia. The house is in a quiet but popular, neighbourhood, overlooking Puget Sound and the Olympic Mountains. It is close to the restaurants, shops and the nightlife of trendy Ballard. It is a short drive to the University of Washington and downtown Seattle. There are a number of lovely walks nearby including to Shilshole Bay Marina. The main living area is on two levels. Sitting, dining room, television area, kitchen, sun-room and one bathroom on the lower level. On the second level there are three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The main bedroom has a dressing room and en-suite bathroom. The second bedroom has a Double bed, the third bedroom has been used as a study and has a fold-out Queen sofa bed. All bedrooms have views over Puget Sound. The second upstairs bathroom, has a bath & shower. It is shared by bedrooms two and three. There are also an attic currently used for owner storage and an un-renovated basement which has a laundry with new washing machine and dryer and a tool room. The home has a large backyard - and decks with BBQ facilities.
