   There's potential for a third bedroom/office in the basement. This bonus room has an inlet for a closet, and respectable window size/ceiling height.

11. Stone Barbeque
    
    One of the most intriguing attributes of this special property. A 1920s custom stone barbeque and retaining wall.
    
    
12. Deck
    
    Host a twilight dinner party on the uber-private two-tiered deck.
    
    
13. The Grounds
    
    Ahhh, the grounds. Where do I begin? Before you even set foot on the property, you can tell it's owned by a talented greenthumb. The terraced front is populated with drought-tolerant, mostly native plants and hasn't received a drop of water from a garden hose all summer. Impressive! Meander along enchanting pathways through the garden beds in front of the house. Take a breather on the park bench and let the hummingbirds entertain you. Wind your way around to the back and disappear into a private oasis. I'll let the pictures tell the rest of the story...
    
    
14. Detached Garage
    
    Ivy 1. Garage 0. Here's a look at the detached 1-car garage, located in the NW corner of the property at street level. The driveway leading to it has room for one vehicle off-street. Plus, there's easy street parking out front.

16. Bird's Eye View
    
    The 19,475 square foot lot abuts the Cheasty Greenbelt to the east...
    
    
17. Steps to...
    
    ...staples of an urban existence. It's not just the house and the yard and the block...it's the community in which you are buying. Beacon Hill is coming up roses all around. Future Link Light Rail is just minutes away. Columbia City too. Which means dinners at La Medusa, take-out from Tutta Bella Trattoria and Jones BBQ, or coffee culture from the newly minted Galaxie Espresso (Beacon Ave.). Get your jog on along the new Chief Sealth Trail. Pop on over tothe fresh fruit stands and a soon-to-be-renovated Jefferson Park (think baseball diamond, city-view jogging path, basketball & tennis courts, park and more). Plus, you're a nine dollar cab ride to Safeco & Qwest Fields, the International District & Downtown...
    
    Say hello to Beacon Avenue's newest urban coffee shop!
