About this home

Secluded mid-century oasis in the middle of everything Pierce County. Cheerful entry invites you into this well-maintained 3-bedroom rambler. The bright, sunken living room with an oversized fireplace is perfect for hosting or cozy nights at home. Exposed beams and a rock fireplace surround draw in natural elements, blending the home and landscape. The kitchen, dining, breakfast nook, and additional living space come together to create a functional, well-lit great room. This kitchen was lovingly updated for added utility and modern style. A small but mighty ¾ bathroom is tucked away near the garage. Down the hall, you’ll find three bedrooms, each with vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors, and exposed beams; the charm in this home never quits. The second bathroom has grab bars for the shower and toilet, plus an oversized doorway and sink with space beneath for feet or knees. Two-car garage with W/D, additional fridge, and EV charging. This 1.25-acre lot backs up to Clear Creek; enjoy outdoor living with oversized deck, fully fenced backyard, fire pit, and garden space galore. 10 mins to downtown Puyallup and the Sounder or a quick commute to JBLM, freeways, Tacoma, and everything else in the county.
