Columbia City is vibrant, alive with people gathering in the parks, enjoying jazz at the Royal Room, or delicious Hawaiian fusion at Marination, or simply shopping for groceries at PCC. That’s just a touch of what is to offer in this neighborhood, and these are just a few blocks from this end-unit home at 5057 37th Ave S. Built in 2019 and south facing, light shines into this home throughout the year. A wall of windows inspires the main living area, and top-down bottom-up blinds provide privacy while still allowing natural light to flow in. Upstairs you’ll find the primary suite, separate from the main gathering space, quiet and roomy. Before you head upstairs to the rooftop deck there is a small space for a desk, surrounded by windows. The rooftop deck provides 360 degree views and a fantastic place to entertain as the Blue Angels fly overhead. Down on the entry level there is an additional bedroom, bathroom, and laundry. Great for guests to utilize, and to fashion as a flex space that doubles as a home office. Home is here, and dynamic living is just blocks away.
