Property Description
This is the kind of home buyers hope comes on the market near Tacoma's bustling 6th Ave District - a 1912 Craftsman with bright rooms, tall ceilings, great energy, and the right updates already in place. Hardwood and fir floors add warmth throughout, while the kitchen keeps things clean and functional with quartz counters with an abundance of cabinets, gas cooking, stainless appliances and a pantry included. A main-floor office, updated 3/4 bath, and laundry room add flexibility for everyday living. Upper level features all three bedrooms on the same floor, and an updated primary bath including a soaking tub. Great spaces for room to spread out without wasted square footage. And unlike many homes in this price range, the space here feels bright, connected, and fully usable - all above ground living, no basement to mess with! Out back, a large deck overlooks the fully fenced yard, raised garden beds, plus alley access and one of the property's standout features: a rare 720 sqft two-car garage that is dry, clean & solid. Ideal for parking, storage, projects, bikes, tools, or all the things people actually need space for. Just blocks to UPS, neighborhood restaurants, coffee shops, and parks.
