About this home
Single Family · Built 1957
Rumored to be the inspiration behind Van Morrison’s “Bright Side of the Road,” this hip 3 Bedroom landmark home sits on the brightest and best street in the heart of West Seattle’s coveted Fauntleroy neighborhood. The western views of the Sound, mountains, sunsets, and ferry will blow you away. Built originally in 1957 and thoughtfully updated since, this pad has a mid-century modern vibe along with the classic charm of the fifties. It was mid-century cool before that was even a thing. Infused with light from its perched position, you’ll enjoy beautiful views and sunsets from inside and outside on the patio. Large 2 car garage with room for storage. Walking distance to shops, restaurants and the sea.
