For sale — or at least it
was for sale. I toured this Ballard Craftsman at
7055 Dibble Ave NW a few weeks back and it has since been
pulled off the market (perhaps just for the holidays). Never mind that, though. The house is still worth taking a look at. As you can see, it’s a very classic Craftsman built in 1911 with 1860 square feet (though the actual “livable” space is far less, I really hate when real estate agents fudge this number). It was going for a cool $460,000 before it was pulled, has good potential, but needs some home improvement love. If you’re interested in the house, you can contact the selling agent
Glenn Roberts — he’ll likely know the current status.

This is a very typical one and a half floor Craftsman design. Right away you notice the low-pitched roof, decorative braces, and porch columns. What isn’t typical is having the garage.

The view from the porch. This Ballard neighborhood is very sought after. You can see some nice Tudor style houses across the street.

The property has a fairly large backyard with a massive maple tree (which probably makes grass growing difficult). Also notice the large rock toward the right of the frame. The foundation of the house was built around the rock, which you can see protruding from the basement floor.

The bathroom is passable but could use more updating, perhaps some subway tiles and a more true-to-era floor tile. The shade of green is not my favorite.

Though the kitchen screams 1960′s, it has charm. This area could also use an update and some sheetrock work. The original fir floors have a lot of wear, but also a lot of character.

The dining and living areas reveal some very elegant boxed beam ceilings. You can also see on the floor where the built-in cabinetry used to stand. Quite a few windows light the house very well.

Photos are still good, rush or no rush. I love the color of this house! It’s is sort of turquiose-ish.
