About this home

A rare Old Town Tacoma opportunity! Lovingly maintained and full of character, this inviting bungalow blends vintage charm with exciting possibilities for the future. Fir wood floors, vaulted ceilings with exposed beams, a main-floor primary bedroom, and an attached garage are just the beginning. Upstairs, a loft with partial views of Commencement Bay has its own full en-suite bath offering flexibility as a second bedroom, office, or retreat. A partially finished basement adds versatility with a shop area, storage room, and additional space for projects or work areas. Step outside to enjoy the deck and thoughtfully planted garden spaces including raspberry bushes and a hazelnut tree! All this is tucked away on an ultra-quiet street in Old Town, yet just blocks from The Spar Tavern, Curran Coffee, Old Town Park and more. And let's talk about the lot: The unique positioning of the home, combined with Tacoma UR2 zoning, creates exciting potential to explore future expansion, an ADU, or other development possibilities. Buyer to verify. A well-loved home, a special setting, and a lot full of promise—this is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Old Town Tacoma with possibilities you simply don't see every day.
