Preference Signals
No prior feedback on record. Sunset Hill is a desirable target neighborhood per criteria. Corner lot at 7,501 sqft is a strong positive for yard space and a private-feeling setting. 1949 build — likely needs updating (kitchen/baths condition unknown without interior photos), but listing notes first time available in 58 years, which could mean well-maintained or deferred maintenance. 2-story layout with bedrooms upstairs aligns with multi-story preference. Attached 1-car garage meets minimum.
Bottom Line
This is a clean Scenario A on paper — hits every hard criterion and lands right at the bottom of the expected price range. The 7,501 sqft corner lot in Sunset Hill is one of the larger lots you'll find in Ballard at this price point. The big unknowns are interior condition (1949 build, 58-year single-owner tenure) and floor plan layout — whether it's the open main floor you want or a compartmentalized mid-century setup. Worth touring to answer those questions; the specs and location are strong enough that this should be near the top of the list.
