2. Large & updated kitchen is ready for your home chef’s dreams to come true!
Featuring a generous layout with an ideal design, this home’s updated kitchen offers that perfect blend of style and efficiency. Details like engineered hardwood floors, a shimmering subway tile backsplash, gorgeous reclaimed wood counters, and eye-catching open shelving lend themselves to the attractive aesthetic, while stainless steel appliances, a gas range and hood, and generous cupboard space are ready to get to work!
Cheerful natural light pours in through the kitchen window, and the same is true for the rest of the living space that the kitchen looks out into—bright, rejuvenating sunlight delights! The layout effortlessly transitions from the kitchen into the dining area and living room, making it easy to spend quality time with loved ones and entertain guests.
3. Main bedroom features a *huge* walk-in closet.

In the sizable main bedroom, a huge walk-in closet features a built-in closet system with floor-to-ceiling storage ready for you to move right in and start to unpack. This home’s second bedroom also offers its own built-in closet, and you’ll find even more storage space in the attic.
4. Fresh bathroom sparkles with style.
This home’s bath provides top-notch modern amenities while embracing vintage flair. Details like crisp white trim hint at this home’s rich history, while more contemporary elements like the tiled tub and shower and the pristine vanity complement original charm.

Not only are you in a central Tacoma neighborhood, but you even have your own fully fenced backyard, offering the best of both worlds! A lovely deck overlooks the yard where you can enjoy lawn games or let pets and little ones wander with peace of mind.
