Timeless character, a private setting, and exceptional potential come together at 831 NW 52nd St. Set back from the street, this cedar-shingled Ballard cottage offers a welcoming retreat with a deep backyard ready to be reimagined for gardening, entertaining, or quiet outdoor living. Original hardwood floors, built-in shelving, period lighting, and vintage architectural details preserve the home's authentic charm. Updated plumbing and electrical, including an electrical panel replaced in the early 2000s, provide a starting point for your next chapter. The efficient floor plan lends itself to a thoughtful renovation that blends classic character with modern comfort.
