About this home
Single Family · Built 1895 · Historic
Great house on a great block in a great part of town - this early American Foursquare has plenty of charm & is ready to welcome its new owners. Comfortable & open main floor w/large rooms, great flow & an updated kitchen. Upstairs you'll find two large bedrooms, along w/a smaller one and an office, which hides the stairs to your attic storage. You'll find the basement to be partially finished with loads of space for storage, another bedroom, an ADU and a 3/4 bath - lots of potential down here. Relax on your covered front porch or your spacious back deck, and when you're done relaxing, you're a comfortable walk from all there is to do on Hilltop and steps from the new light rail extension. Close to shopping and I5 - don't sleep on this one.
