6126 W Mercer Way, Mercer Island, WA

This 4,000 square foot rambler with daylight basement is located on a private street with only five homes and it had a large 0.40-acre lot.  Unfortunately, the house sat empty for almost three years due to foreclosure. When we purchased this home, it was dark and musty but the price was right at $1,077,000.  This home ran us about $450,000 in renovations since we had to take the entire home down to studs. Renovations included all new roof ($25,000), new garage door ($6,500), new front door ($2,500), new windows ($21,000), all new paint ($25,500), new driveway ($5,000), all new landscaping with fence ($22,500), new kitchen ($55,000), new bathrooms ($37,500), new flooring ($27,500), structural reconfiguration of main level master and bath ($15,000), new decks and railings ($20,000), and so much more.  We sold the home in 2019 for $1,775,000.
