Classic Cottage with Big Backyard in Central Tacoma

Updated with care and showing off delightful vintage character, this home in Central Tacoma promises easy one-level living. With a 1,229-square-foot layout that includes 3 bedrooms and a ¾ bath alongside inviting living spaces, this home truly checks all of the boxes! And that’s only the beginning—this turnkey Tacoma treasure is also situated on an expansive 9,000-square-foot lot that includes a generous backyard. Bring your imagination and plans, as there’s even the possibility to build a garage/shop, a DADU and garage combo, or maybe even 2 additional dwellings. (Buyer to verify development options to their satisfaction.) Located at 3016 S 10th Tacoma, WA 98405 and just blocks from 6th Ave, dining, shopping, schools, parks and more, this city oasis is listed for $535,000. 

Find a haven of relaxation and gathering in the open living room, where a charming fireplace is at the center of it all and a huge picture window invites in natural light. Enjoy meals while you catch up with loved ones in the dining area, and enjoy the convenience of having the neat and tidy kitchen right at your fingertips. Vintage cabinets and a cheerful color palette set the scene, while views into the expansive backyard add to the peaceful setting. 

A mudroom off the kitchen includes the washer and dryer, and leads to the backyard and sport court. The kitchen also leads to a spacious and private 3rd bedroom, plus the extra-deep attached garage with an abundance of storage. Even more flexibility beckons from 2 additional bedrooms right down the hall, both of which offer serene garden views through large windows.

Even more dynamic opportunity awaits with the huge backyard. Southern exposure provides sun all day long for your garden, a sports court offers endless fun, and alley access means that you could even park an RV out back. In the years to come, you may be able to further develop the land—the blank canvas is ready for your designs and development! Of course, you can simply enjoy this green getaway as is, but it could also potentially accommodate a garage/shop, a DADU/garage combo, or even 2 additional dwellings. (Buyer to verify development options to their satisfaction!)
