House O The Week honors this time around are going to this Neoclassical Mount Baker
jewel located at
3211 S Dose Ter — just waiting to be polished. Actually, it looks to be in the process of being polished. I have to admit, this is one of my favorite houses in the city and it’s pretty amazing even in this state (in a neighorhood already busting at the seams with high-end homes). It was built in 1912 and sports 5 bed, 2.75 bath, 2,560 square feet.
It’s now worth around $1.1 million (interesting to note that in the past month it has lost $18,000 in value due to the market). Typical with Neoclassical homes, the most impressive part of
the facade is the full-height porch supported by classical columns and topped off with Corinthian capitals.
