Turn your heads toward a bellesima casa in West Seattle. 🏡
The 83-year-old Cettolin house — which looks like a quaint Italian villa — has been nominated for landmark preservation, since it may be in the path of future Light Rail construction. 🚈
Built by an Italian immigrant steelworker named Fausto Urbano Cettolin, the three-story home has terrazzo floors and stucco masonry, with grand arches and columns on the front porch.
Besides some light renovations over the years, the original structure has stayed intact as it passed through different owners. Basically, it’s almost like vacationing in Tuscany, without all the jetlag. 🇮🇹
Wanna weigh in on the house’s status? The Seattle Landmarks Preservation Board will discuss the nomination on Wednesday, March 1 at City Hall.
A WebEx link will be available one week before the meeting via the Department of Neighborhoods’s website, or you can write in comments to erin.doherty@seattle.gov by Tuesday., Feb. 28.
