Steeped in history and boasting original architectural details throughout, this timeless masterpiece presents a rare opportunity! Boasting old-world charm along with modern upgrades that today’s homeowner is sure to love, this 1892-built home is ready to take on the future. In addition to magnificent living spaces perfect for entertaining, this home also includes a remodeled kitchen, 7 bedrooms (plus a den), 2.75 baths, multiple view decks, and beautiful outdoor spaces. Located at 423 N D St Tacoma, WA 98403, this 6,307-square-foot dream presents 3 floors of functional living and is listed for $1,350,000.

A gated entry and a covered carriage entrance make for a striking first impression, and when you step inside this traditional beauty, get ready to be transported back in time in the best way imaginable! In the main entryway, stately columns and a grand staircase greet you, and immediately to the right you’ll find the formal living room. Natural light cascades in through huge windows, shining the spotlight on the intricately accented fireplace and exquisite built-ins.

To the left of the entryway, the formal dining room awaits. Vibrant accent walls and the same neat trim found throughout the rest of the home set the scene, and those who love to host holiday feasts and elegant dinner parties are in for a real treat. Easily entertain a crowd in this grand setting, while your remodeled, premium kitchen makes such events possible. Sleek, top-notch appliances rest alongside gorgeous cabinetry, and a delicious blend of fashion and function ensure that any time spent in the kitchen is enjoyable. Whip up elaborate homemade recipes, or enjoy a laidback meal at the bar-style counter or in the dining nook, all with a view of the Puget Sound shimmering in the distance!

This home’s 7 bedrooms each offer something unique, and each sumptuous space is a joy to rest and rejuvenate in. From artistically adorned fireplaces and thoughtfully curated color palettes to convenient built-in storage and rejuvenating natural light, each haven presents versatility, comfort, and privacy.

One of this home’s many enviable amenities includes its multiple view decks. Find expansive deck space to transform into your own outdoor paradise, and whether you choose to fill the space with outdoor dining sets, comfy lounge chairs, flower baskets (or all of the above!), the captivating views of the Puget Sound offer an idyllic backdrop. Host summertime soirées while the sun goes down, or sunbathe in peace and quiet. You’ll also find a fenced backyard with a patio and garden to indulge in.
