About this home
Price drop, plus nearly $7,000 to help you make your move now! This condo could be your perfect match if you just landed a new job, are heading to UW Tacoma, or have fresh PCS orders to JBLM. The sellers are offering a $6,970 credit—use it toward your 2027 HOA dues, closing costs, or a rate buydown; your choice! Plus, qualified buyers can assume the VA loan at a rare 3.65% interest rate. Parking is effortless with two assigned, side-by-side spaces in the secure garage, just steps from the elevator to your 5th-floor home. Inside, you'll love the tall ceilings and expansive windows that let the natural light pour in. Radiant floor heating and an electric fireplace take the chill off winter nights, while central air conditioning easily handles those hot Tacoma summers. The thoughtful layout features two bedrooms and two full baths (including a bonus stand-alone shower), a full-size washer and dryer with extra pantry/utility storage, and a private balcony off the primary bedroom. A large, separate storage unit is also included. Marcato residents enjoy top-tier amenities, including a fitness center, community room, theater, and a courtyard with a BBQ. Enjoy ultimate urban convenience—walk to the YMCA pool, the Brewery District, wine tastings, the Theater District, UW Tacoma, and the waterfront. With the Sounder, light rail, and I-5 close by, your commute to JBLM or Seattle is a breeze. Is this the one? Come see for yourself and get ready to Reimagine Where You Call Home.
