About 5728 Woodlawn Avenue N
A block from the south shore of Green Lake, this Craftsman has been lived in, invested in, and quietly perfected. Days begin on the wraparound porch and end on the private deck off the primary suite, watching the sunset settle over the neighborhood below. Inside, Brazilian cherry floors and new second floor hardwoods carry light through an open layout built for hosting, from a kitchen with granite counters, gas cooking, and Big Chill appliances that bring real personality to the room, to a built in bookcase anchoring the upper floor. Downstairs, an entertainment room and a newly finished bonus room stretch the living space well past what the street suggests. Outside is where this one separates itself. A wood fired pizza oven turns the front garden into a gathering place, a koi pond with fountain and a second water feature draw herons, hawks, and hummingbirds, and the fenced yard stays lush and private. Carport, EV charging, and off street parking solve the Green Lake parking question before it starts. New attic insulation, cleaned ducts, a newer water heater, and a new washer and dryer mean the unglamorous work is already handled. Two blocks to the lake path for the loop or a lazy afternoon on the water. Zoka and Tangletown Public House sit a block south, the Pitch and Putt and the Lower Woodland courts are a short walk west, and Latona Pub, Green Lake Village, and Woodland Park Zoo fill in from there. Homes this close to the lake, and this cared for, do not come up often.
