About this home

Exceptional North Tacoma opportunity in one of the city's most desirable neighborhoods! This 6,000 sq. ft. UR3-zoned lot with valuable alley access offers outstanding potential for both renovation and future redevelopment under Tacoma's evolving middle housing zoning regulations. The existing home provides a strong fixer-upper opportunity for buyers looking to restore or update, while the lot itself also presents excellent long-term value for builders, developers, or investors seeking to maximize one of the area's increasingly scarce infill sites. Ideally located just minutes from Ruston Way Waterfront, Point Defiance Park, shopping, dining, and major commuter routes, this property offers flexibility, upside, and location all in one—an opportunity to secure a prime piece of North Tacoma in a market where options continue to diminish.
