About this home
Single Family · Built 1948
First time in nearly 60 years, an amazing lot (and cottage) is now available. Now, you could remodel and make it livable--maybe even "super cute." But honestly, you’re more likely going to bulldoze it. The true value is in the 6,238 square feet lot in Mercer Island's coveted “East Seattle” neighborhood. Facing west, your dream house will be bathed in sun on all floors. Just three blocks up from the lake where 5 street-end public beach parks await for lake access, picnics, and sunbathing. A few blocks from the lid park, 6 min drive to downtown Seattle, 8 min drive to downtown Bellevue and 1 min drive to downtown Mercer Island. No better location. Grab your checkbook, Call us and fire up that bull dozer!
