Property Description

Graciously set in Capitol Hill’s storied Harvard-Belmont enclave, this grand 1906 Craftsman is both legacy estate and enduring residence. Set on an extraordinary 15,000-square-foot lot, it reflects an era when Seattle’s leading citizens built with vision, permanence, and artistry. Spanning three finished levels above grade, the home balances historic integrity with thoughtful modernization. Public rooms unfold in measured succession ~ formal, yet unforced. Original millwork, generous proportions, and divided-light windows define the interiors and affirm the home’s architectural pedigree, complemented by carefully integrated updates that support contemporary living. A JAS–renovated kitchen introduces refined precision, aligned with the structure’s historic material language. A light-filled two-story stairwell rises to a broad second-floor landing, leading to additional bedrooms, baths, and a private office. Along the north elevation, the primary suite spans east to west across three rooms and a full bath, capturing steady daylight and maintaining separation from the principal gathering spaces. The top level reveals an expansive former gymnasium reimagined as a family room, accompanied by guest quarters, a full bath, and storage. Elevated above the street, the expansive, mature grounds and layered plantings provide rare privacy and quiet command—an estate-scale presence seldom found within the city.
