Magnolia

Est. Homes 1920s–1960s Styles 7 Architectural Types

Nestled on its own secluded peninsula west of downtown, Magnolia is home to some of Seattle's most beautifully maintained residences — and Fridenmaker Painting is proud to be a trusted partner in keeping them that way. Magnolia's housing stock ranges from stately 1920s–30s Tudors and Cape Cods to sweeping mid-century ranches and modern custom builds with Puget Sound views. The neighborhood's exposed coastal position means exterior paint takes a beating, making proper preparation and premium coatings essential. Whether you're refreshing a classic Magnolia Tudor or updating the interior of a newly remodeled view home, our fourth-generation expertise ensures a flawless, lasting result.
