About this home

Beautifully maintained and thoughtfully enhanced, this distinguished University Place residence offers a compelling blend of timeless character, quality craftsmanship and exceptional livability. A stained-glass entry, ¾" red oak hardwoods, graceful bay windows and skylights set the tone, filling the home with warmth and natural light. Generous living and gathering spaces flow to a beautifully renovated kitchen appointed with custom Artisan’s Group cabinetry, granite surfaces and stainless-steel appliances. Remodeled baths featuring travertine, marble and granite, along with updated millwork, solid-core doors, lighting, flooring and major systems, reflect a home that has been cared for with intention.All finished living space is above grade, including an expansive primary retreat, while abundant storage adds everyday ease. Outside, real cedar siding and brick detailing speak to the home’s enduring quality, and the secluded backyard provides a private setting for entertaining, gardening or simply unwinding. An oversized two-door garage with extensive cabinetry, RV parking, garden shed, secure fencing and underground utilities further elevate the property.The setting is equally exceptional—just one block from Chambers Bay Golf Course and its spectacular park, trails and recreation, with highly regarded University Place schools nearby. A beautifully established home offering privacy, substance and an enviable lifestyle in one of University Place’s most desirable settings.
