Rare opportunity to own the Funk House, a circa 1890 Queen Anne on the National, State, and Local Historic Registers in the Olympia Avenue Historic District. Set on an elevated east side corner lot, this storybook Victorian greets you with a picturesque arched entry porch, carved lion-head detailing, and a… Read More flagstone walkway that centers the home from the street. Inside, period craftsmanship is everywhere. Fish-scale shingles, a rounded corner tower, and leaded and stained glass windows set the tone, while ornate wallpaper friezes, bullseye trim, and paneled doors carry it through. The front parlor centers on a carved mantel with beveled mirrors and a brick gas fireplace, framed by inlaid hardwood floor borders. The kitchen is anchored by a Viking range, built-in refrigerator, apron sink, and stone counters. Upstairs you will find two bedrooms and a full bath with a classic clawfoot tub, plus a convenient half bath on the main level. Hardwood floors run throughout, and central air adds modern comfort. The grounds are their own retreat. A large and exceptionally private garden sits behind ivy clad walls, with flagstone paths, raised beds, and mature plantings. A detached garage rests down a long private drive, with a separate outbuilding for garden tools. Once home to attorney George Funk and writer Goldie Robertson Funk, and featured on the city's historic Women's Walking Tour, this is a distinctive piece of Olympia history ready for its next stewards.
