A GRAND 1888 VICTORIAN in the popular Uptown neighborhood has the large rooms and openness of the Craftsman era. Built as a show-stopping private home, when Port Townsend’s expectation was to become THE central city of the Puget Sound and when that did not happen, the over-3000 square foot home was divided into a duplex. It works well as a duplex with the double front door opens to a foyer which has the 2 “front doors” - one for the main floor and a separate door for entry to a foyer for the upper floor . The entry to the main floor opens to an original hallway with glass doors which open to the spacious living room (parlor) with high ceilings, tall windows and a beautiful original fireplace , with tiles and metal surround . "Pocket" doorsbetween the parlor and the spacious dining room; the kitchen is beyond. There are two bedrooms and a full bath on this floor. Back to the front entry, the “other” door opens to an attractive vestibule and the beautiful original staircase . In the landing of the staircase the really fine stained glass window is one of the few still remaining in Port Townsend. The upstairs “apartment” also has two bedrooms and a full bath, similar kitchen, dining room and large living area – the fireplace has been replaced with a woodburning Vermont Castings stove . The original open second floor porch has views and is now glassed in and can be enjoyed year-round. From the upstairs hall at the top of the staircase, a view of the stained glass window and the handsome woodwork. From the second floor, there is access to yet another floor – the third floor with two bedrooms. There is an elevator which is accessed from the first floor and runs to the second floor and to the full basement. The basement is also accessible from an exterior door. The original small garage building includes a workshop area. The large side yard gives privacy and has opportunities for gardening, an orchard or just enjoyable open space.

A TRUE "NORTHWEST STYLE" HOME with a real front porch which has skylights… a great place to enjoy the native trees and “natural landscape”of the front yard. Stepping inside you can see the beautiful fir used throughout – a beamed ceiling in the living room – a “real” wood-burning fireplace . The Olympic Mountain Range can be seen in the distance. Situated in a quiet neighborhood in the Fort Worden State Park area of Port Townsend, on an oversized lot (8,000 sq. ft. compared to the usual 5000 sq ft. lot). In order to provide as much natural light as possible (even on cloudy days), this local architect/builder’s design included dormers, skylights , and tall windows (actually the “height” is created by the windows on the first floor being low). As soon as you step inside, the fir floors and stairs give a warm welcome, as do the attractive fireplace and the “low” windows. The living room and dining room have no walls dividing them, creating choices of use of the spaces which can be expanded for a need or an occasion. Sliding glass doors open to the back deck and the fenced back yard, and the garage. The large kitchen is separated from the dining area with an attractive and useful bar ; again no wall to block light between rooms. The versatile floorplan includes a very private bedroom on the main floor with an adjacent bath which was recently remodeled adding a “walk-in” shower (for wheelchair access), and a large skylight. The beautiful staircase and wainscoting have natural light from a large skylight. Upstairs are two nice-sized bedrooms with dormer windows …again bringing in light as well as a pleasant view. The spacious bathroom has two skylights and tub with shower. The house has lots of closet space, including a pantry in the kitchen. Unusual in Port Townsend...the utilities are buried in the street!

CHARMING HOME of another era. This 1925 vintage home has stayed true to the era with thecurved entry and peaked roof . Picket fence and attractive landscaping add to the “street appeal”. Original wood floors,leaded windows , and original glass doorknobs are part of the charm. The kitchen has vintage cabinetry and access to the enclosed service porch. First floor has one bedroom, an office, full bath and upstairs are two more bedrooms. The separate smaller house with a living-kitchen-dining area, one bedroom, and a bath with shower – a perfect rental for extra income or a guest house. The original one-car garage with shop/storage space (with a rain barrel to catch water for outdoor watering). Conveniently located near busline, medical facilities, schools and grocery shopping. Note: Both the main house and the separate cottage can be rentals - that is because this usage existed prior to city ruling on Accessory Dwelling Units.
