Located at 6827 S K Street Tacoma, WA 98408 and less than 1 mile from 85-acre Wapato Park, grocery stores, dining, shopping, schools, I-5 access and more, this turnkey Tacoma treasure is listed for $430,000.
Picture-perfect curb appeal delights with 1940s charm and neat landscaping, and the inviting living room is ready to greet you just inside! A gorgeous brick fireplace transports you back in time in the best way, adding instant cozy vibes and a hearth to design your room around. Imagine relaxing here while you catch up with visitors and spend quality time with loved ones, and have fun infusing this haven with your own personal style in the years to come!
Laminate flooring flows into the large dining room, where there’s more than enough space for a full-sized dining set should you need it. There’s room to host a crowd at your next holiday celebration or laid-back get-together! Like the rest of the home, a palette of tasteful neutrals characterizes the space so you can move right in and begin enjoying home-sweet-home from day one, but there’s also plenty of opportunity to bring your own unique aesthetic to life.
It’s not everyday you find a kitchen this spacious, especially from a home of this era! But this updated kitchen beckons with modern convenience; generous storage and counters are ready for kitchen essentials, countertop appliances, and of course all of your culinary creations!
The main level also includes a laundry/mud room with ample built-in storage and access to the backyard, a ¾ bath, and when it’s time to unwind, the primary bedroom awaits. Upstairs you’ll also find 2+ bedrooms and a full bath.
Your very own outdoor oasis is ready to make your backyard dreams come true! This home is situated on a large fenced lot, promising outdoor potential galore. Set up a cute outdoor dining set or living area on the patio, put your green thumb to work cultivating fresh fruits and veggies in the raised garden bed, and keep all of your garden tools and outdoor toys tucked away in the storage shed. There’s also RV parking within the fenced yard.
