I've been scouring seattle for about 5 months now, and there are lots of good houses that are completely remodeled and can be had for around $650k-$750k in the 1400-2200sqft range. All within 20 minutes of downtown (Shoreline and Northgate being the farthest areas I searched.)

You aren't looking hard enough.
