About this home

Charming Dutch Colonial filled with natural light and timeless character, ideally located in one of Walla Walla’s historic neighborhoods. Beautiful original wood floors carry through the inviting living room, where a gas fireplace and large picture window create a warm gathering space. The adjoining dining room features a window seat and plenty of room for a generous dining table. The completely updated kitchen offers an eat-in nook and direct access to the back deck and fully fenced yard—perfect for easy indoor-outdoor living. Upstairs, you’ll find three bedrooms, each with its own walk-in closet, including one with a private den or office area. A modernized full bath offers excellent storage and thoughtful updates. The clean, spacious basement includes laundry with a utility sink, additional storage, the beginnings of a wine cellar, and plenty of possibilities for an exercise room, office, guest space, or more. A detached 1-car garage sits at the end of the driveway, opening into the privacy of the fenced backyard. The versatility of this property is maximized with a Short-term Rental non-owner occupied license & a solid booking history. (Yes - you may buy furnished!) Major improvements within the last five years include a new roof, furnace, water heater, washer/dryer, and more. Enjoy the efficiency of important modern updates while surrounded by the character of an established neighborhood—all just a few blocks from Whitman College, downtown Walla Walla, and Pioneer Park.
