About this home

Space, style and a setting that’s increasingly hard to find in Northeast Tacoma. Set on an exceptionally large lot with beautiful views of Mt. Rainier, this refreshed 5-bedroom home offers the flexibility to grow, gather, work and unwind all under one roof. Step inside to bright, inviting living spaces enhanced by new flooring, a fresh contemporary palette, upgraded lighting and fixtures, and an elevated interior door package with modern panel doors and coordinating hardware. The kitchen brings a crisp modern feel with stainless appliances and generous natural light, while the updated quartz countertops in bathrooms continue the home’s clean, cohesive popcorn ceiling design. A new roof adds another major improvement already completed for the next owner. The furnace has also been upgraded.With 5 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, there’s room for home offices, guests, hobbies or living without sacrificing everyday comfort. Outside, the oversized lot creates possibilities like DADU or maybe ADU, rarely found at this price point all framed by the unmistakable presence of Mt. Rainier. Buyer bonus available. Come experience the space, improvements and setting for yourself; this may be the one that finally feels like home.
