Bright and beautiful, this classic Cape Cod retreat is a delight through and through, from its impeccably appointed living spaces to the spacious backyard. Imagine cozy evenings relaxing alongside the fireplace in the living room, enjoy the perks of having a formal dining room to host in, and discover dialed-in design in the kitchen. And that’s only the beginning! One of this home’s most enviable features is the fact that it's just down the street from University of Puget Sound and only 0.8 miles from the heart of the popular Proctor District. Located at 1102 N Washington Tacoma, WA 98406, this 2,084-square-foot home is listed for $640,000. Pre-inspection available after your tour.
A neat and tidy exterior exudes Cape Cod charm and hints at this home’s vintage details, as well as how carefully it has been maintained. The living room is a canvas for you to bring your unique vision to life; a timeless fireplace, large windows, gorgeous hardwoods (which you can find on both levels of this home), and more all set the scene. The adjacent formal dining room is just as delightful and is ready to become the backdrop for both laidback meals any day of the week along with special occasions. This is where memories are made!
A cheerful atmosphere beckons from the kitchen, where the ideal fusion of vintage and modern elements characterize the space. White cabinets, custom wood counters, a stylish backsplash, a bistro area, and views into the backyard and patio are just a few of the not-to-miss features.
The main level also includes a sizable bedroom and a refreshed full bathroom that sparkles with contemporary spa-inspired style. Upstairs, 2 more spacious bedrooms and an elegantly updated ¾ bath await. One of this home’s most enviable offerings is how much versatility there is—the unfinished basement and storage area are massive and provide possibilities galore! You can finally create the hobby room or music studio that you’ve always wanted. And thanks to this home’s generous lot size, the property even has plenty of room to build a garage/DADU in the future.
Just off of the back of the home, a partially covered patio is waiting to be transformed into your summer oasis. Imagine comfy lounge chairs and an outdoor dining set with a string of twinkling lights overhead—weekend BBQs and hangouts are on the horizon! The backyard is also ready for play (play fetch with your pup!) and gardening; the space is lovely as is, but there’s also room for putting your green thumb to work in the garden beds and landscaping.
