Windermere and Redfin have the details on the 1-bedroom for sale in this old-world charmer at the corner of Thomas and Belmont. (God, real estate copy comes easy.) The San Remo building is an official historic landmark (rooms rented from $35-$42.50 back in 1908, according to a Seattle Times ad). Just off the main drags of Olive and Broadway, you’re not even three blocks from the Broadway QFC, four from the beautiful Capitol Hill branch of the library, and one-and-a-half, say, from the B&O Espresso. Location, location, location.
Looks like they just re-did the roof. Let’s peer inside. You’ve got 486 square feet, with hardwood floors, a gas stove in the kitchen, and gas forced air heat. The interior, especially the bathroom, is mostly unremarkable. No claw foots here! The kitchen is not the smallest I’ve seen, but you won’t be setting up a home catering business. No breakfast nook.
The views are “territorial,” which on the first floor means “the street or an adjacent building, through branches.” There are 19 units in the building, and HOA dues are $350. Cats only! Still, $150,000, people and that’s the first listed price. Make an offer!
If it’s Cats Only – I don’t know of any cat that can cough up a 150K hairball.
And the photo with the ‘A’ marker makes it look like Johnny’s in the basement, thinking bout the government. Look out kid.
Ha! I used to know someone who lived in the basement there. And he thought about the gov’t A LOT.
