Perfectly positioned on a large private lot in University Place, this lovely retreat offers a warm and welcoming atmosphere to call home! Featuring a 892-square-foot layout, here you’ll find 2 bedrooms and 1 bath in addition to well-maintained living spaces and a dialed-in kitchen. In the expansive backyard, an oasis awaits—enjoy a sense of seclusion while you garden, play, entertain, and relax out in the fresh air! And don’t miss the outbuilding that’s ready to become a home office, art studio, or fun party cabana. Located at 3322 Grandview Drive W University Place, WA 98466 and no more than 3 minutes to schools, parks, grocery shopping, dining and much more, this University Place home is listed for $430,000.



Just beyond the fence, a charming pathway leads to the front door, and as soon as you step inside, this home’s inviting layout seamlessly unfolds! In the living room, a tasteful neutral color palette is ready for you to bring it to life with your own personal style. A cozy fireplace anchors the scene, and is perfect for gathering around to relax, visit with loved ones, and kick back to catch up on your favorite TV shows.


Stunning original wood floors flow into the adjoining dining room that rests alongside the impeccably curated kitchen. Serve up delicious homemade meals at the dining table, or enjoy your morning cup of coffee at the breakfast bar with a view of the yard. Discover an abundance of storage in the new cabinets, stainless steel appliances, a prep/bar sink, and custom tile and stone. Each and every detail has been carefully selected, from the gleaming counters to the stylish hardware!


In the primary bedroom, the generous layout ensures that there’s more than enough space for a king-sized bed. Create a comfortable haven for drifting off into dreamland! The second bedroom offers great flexibility, and has direct access to the deck and backyard. Find more versatility in the garage for projects, parking, and storage.



If you’d like even more square footage, the outbuilding offers a blank canvas ready for your unique vision to be brought to life. Transform the outbuilding into a home office where you can focus; create an art studio where you can spread out your supplies; or turn it into an epic party cabana ready for summertime hangouts!


This University Place property’s outdoor setting is absolutely blooming with possibilities as well. In the backyard, there’s more than enough room for lawn games. A cute stone path leads from the house to the outbuilding, and artful landscaping winds its way throughout the yard. Mature shrubs and trees come alive each spring and summer, and in the years to come you can add your own favorite plants into the mix. There’s even potential to build raised garden beds where you can grow fresh fruits and veggies!
