About this home

Warm mid-century character, decades of thoughtful care, and room to make it your own. This lovingly maintained 1954 home sits on a generous quarter-acre lot in Bellingham’s Puget neighborhood. Hardwood floors and a cozy brick fireplace set the tone, with a separate dining room, two bedrooms, and a full bath completing the main level. Fresh paint throughout, a new refrigerator and stove, and a new water heater complement years of meticulous care, including regular roof, gutter, and furnace servicing. The daylight walk-out basement offers a third bedroom, ¾ bath, new flooring, and 400+ square feet of unfinished potential for additional living space, ADU, hobbies, or a rec room. Outside, a freshly stained deck, private patio, and spacious yard invite gardening and gathering, while a new concrete entryway and detached two-car garage add everyday convenience. Close to Whatcom Falls, Galbraith Mountain, shopping, and I-5.
