About this home

Character, comfort, and an exceptional in-town setting come together at this inviting 3-bedroom home in the heart of Bellingham. Offering approximately 1,500 square feet, the home blends original personality with thoughtful improvements, including a newly remodeled bathroom and laundry room, fresh interior and exterior paint, a new water heater, and a freestanding gas stove that keeps the home remarkably warm and comfortable. Outside, the fully fenced double lot is a rare find this close to downtown. A brand-new cedar deck overlooks extensively regraded and refreshed landscaping, established fruit trees, and a reclaimed manganese-steel fire pit ready for long summer evenings. The substantial seven-foot cedar fence and heavy-duty rear gate provide privacy, security and flexibility, while off-street parking leaves room for vehicles, boats, trailers, and outdoor gear. Just blocks from Nelson’s Market and within easy reach of downtown Bellingham’s restaurants, coffee shops, breweries, live music, parks, and public transportation, this is a home that offers considerably more than most: more land, more privacy, more personality, and more room to make it your own.
