Nestled in a quiet Westgate neighborhood and wonderfully close to city amenities, this 1,817-square-foot home offers a lovely mid-entry layout and comfortable spaces throughout. Featuring 3 bedrooms, 2.25 baths, and generous living areas, this beauty is ready for you to infuse each space with your own unique style! Plus, you even have a spacious backyard that includes an expansive deck—get ready for summertime barbecues and hangouts whenever the sun comes out! Located at 6113 N 23rd St Tacoma, WA 98406, this home is listed for $390,000.

Framed by mature greenery in an established neighborhood, this residence offers comfort and convenience at every turn. In the main living room, natural light cascades in through large windows and a gorgeous brick-accented fireplace anchors the space. The layout flows right into the dining room, and from here the kitchen is easily within reach. Boasting handsome cabinetry and spacious counters, the kitchen not only offers a smart design and efficiency, but elegant style makes it a joy to spend time in as well!

You’ll find even more living space on the lower level, and more flexible space with this home's bedrooms, baths, and laundry room. You could use the extra living space as a media center, and if you have an extra room you might transform it into a den, office, playroom, hobby space, etc.!

This property also includes an oversized 2-car garage, plus a storage shed. In the backyard, your very own outdoor retreat promises the ideal setting for relaxation and entertaining! The sprawling deck makes it easy to host barbecues and parties, and all it needs is some comfy outdoor furniture and a couple of vibrant flower baskets to make it really shine. The deck’s lower level features space for a hot tub, offering a fabulous way to unwind after a day well spent.
