My uncle has this old house in the country that used to be owned by his grandparents.

House went live on the MLS this morning.

Sometime in 2007, four families bought these once-new homes. A short dead-end street, tucked away from the main drags through Kirkland and Redmond, where they thought they’d get some peace and quiet.

Here’s a photo from the listing from three (four?) years ago:

Remember when I posted this place a little while back? “Uh, no. I don’t like your posts and do not wish to subscribe to your newslett—” Great. Here are some photos.

I just finished walking through these six - admittedly very nice — detached townhomes off of Rainier Ave South. For those of you not familiar with the area, it’s one of the least desireable places in the city. Wall to wall graffiti. Tents blocking sidewalks. Homeless camps not carefully tucked away like other parts of…

If you don’t, I’ll bet you live longer. Example: all the cabinets in the kitchen look like some variation of this. The perimeter of the shaker-style face is the same everywhere...

Behold:

A totally normal rambler! 3-bedroom, 2-bath, 3-car garage, and a bigly paved driveway. Still unaffordable for me though...

I’m legitimately excited to come back next month and see how it all turns out. One thing I see all the time are million-dollar new homes that are not of a particular... uh, esteemed quality. This one is a cost-is-no-object affair. I guess I should hold my tongue on that last part until he approves my bid.

Still the dream for me: Rambler, 3 beds, 2 baths, 3 car garage, 3-wide driveway.

Tile guy made the grout line align perfectly with door header.
