About this home

New roof, new appliances, new paint inside and out, new flooring, new vapor barrier, new insulation, starting to see the theme? This duplex appeals to all comers: first time buyers looking to start their rental pool, folks shopping multigenerational or a pure investor looking for a truly turn key rental. The upgrade list is extensive and boasts trusted local vendors. Joosten's put on a new roof with IKO Dynasty's shingles that are rated up to 130mph wind speed and all flashing and vents were upgraded as well. The crawl has been completely redone with new insulation, vapor barrier and pump installed by Ash Insulation. The interior has brand new DeWaard and Bode appliances paint and flooring by Great Floors. Exterior has two brand new coats of Behr paint. Conveniently located across the street from Alderwood Elementary and near Squalicum Pier, Redwood Park and Locust beach to name just a few. This property offers the best of both worlds; on city utilities and a quick drive to Bellingham or Ferndale. If you're planning to rent it it's county jurisdiction and subject to less rental red tape.
