Kelli Jo Hjalseth • September 17, 2026

Built in 1906 and showcasing captivating historic character alongside smart modern updates (like the brand new roof and remodeled kitchen), this 1906-built masterpiece is a once-in-a-generation opportunity. Perched on a large corner lot in North Tacoma’s popular Stadium District, here you’ll discover sweeping views of Commencement Bay, the Puget Sound, and Mt Rainier to admire. The expansive 6,600-square-foot layout includes grand scale entertaining spaces alongside 4 bedrooms, 2 full baths, 2 half baths, an unfinished basement, and more. Fun fact: This home was featured in the movie “I Love You to Death”! Located at 424 N C Street Tacoma, WA 98403 and merely minutes to Tacoma Lawn Tennis Club, Annie Wright Schools, hospitals, dining, shopping, services, the Light Rail and so much more, this historic North Tacoma home is listed for $1,950,000. 

From the moment you arrive home, this rare Tacoma treasure transports you back in time in the best way possible. An inviting front porch unfolds to the gorgeous Ipe deck, where idyllic panoramic water and territorial views stretch on towards the horizon. Spectacular sunrises, dreamy evening skies, and maritime activity all offer a lovely backdrop for quiet relaxation and lively entertaining alike. 

Even more views await from inside, where impeccable craftsmanship brings each space to life. The immaculate foyer with the elegant open staircase makes for a lasting first impression, while the formal living room and dining room are poised for memorable meals, conversation, and connection. Stately fireplaces, distinctive millwork, and stunning lighting design instantly elevate any gathering! And the adjacent family room is a haven to enjoy—utilize the space as a cozy retreat for movie nights, or create the home office and library you’ve always wanted. 

In the remodeled chef-designed kitchen, old world character meets modern upgrades, all while embracing this home’s early 20th century origins. Rich finishes, a substantial layout, and high-end appliances are ready for it all, from preparing everyday meals and whipping up elaborate holiday feasts to entertaining your guests in style!

This home’s 4 bedrooms span 2 levels, providing privacy and flexibility. The possibility for multi-generational living, guest accommodations, dedicated space for hobbies and more all await—this residence is ready to evolve as your wants and needs change in the years to come. Each getaway provides something a bit different, with the primary suite as the star of the show. Find sumptuous amenities like the classic fireplace, water views, soaking tub, and serene nook. On the third story with a half bath, bring your ideas and imagination—create a guest suite, set up a recreation area/play room, or design the art studio you’ve always dreamed about. Even more potential beckons from the 2,000+ square foot unfinished basement and in the 2-car garage. 

Established landscaping and wide-ranging garden space offer plenty of room to enjoy the fresh air, while the fully fenced lot means you can let pets explore. Enjoy it all as is, or put your green thumb to work in the years to come, planting your favorite flowers and shrubs. This timeless treasure offers the opportunity to own a piece of Tacoma history!
