Description:

505 E Columbia is set on a sunny-side lot almost directly across from Bear Creek, with numerous skylights and lots of large south-facing windows, and offers in-your-face views of Ballard Mountain. With an expansive deck, generous mud room and protect ted green-space easement, this relatively small 3-bedroom, 2.5 bath home lives like a much larger property. Remodeled 3 years ago the house features new windows on the upper levels, a modern bathroom in the master and an updated powder room on the main level. The house also includes a comfortable kitchen with new countertops and sink and freshly painted cabinets and an open, welcoming living room and study area. A well-thought out hybrid solar design moves excess solar gain from the master down to the family room on the lower level, keeping utility bills low, and back-door street access makes loading and unloading groceries easy. A hot tub, steam room, single-car garage and small fenced dog yard round out the property.
