North Seattle Cottage with Fenced Yard: Listed at $389,950 in Maple Leaf

Sunset has some excellent ideas for raised beds.
This corrugated steel idea would work perfectly in this home's backyard.

Great little 1938 cottage up North in Maple Leaf and near Northgate.  Terrific yard, private dead end street, and fun use of space and details such as concrete countertops in the kitchen.   View the photos online here.  Let me know if I can get you more information.
