The story
Perched mid-lot with views of the Strait of Juan de Fuca and Olympic Mountains, this two-bedroom home is close to Shane Park, Hamilton Elementary, Crown Park, and the Olympic Discovery Trail. A covered entry leads inside, where vinyl plank floors, updated windows with blinds, and tall, thick Craftsman wainscoting set the tone. The living room’s matte black ceiling fan is a stunning focal point. The kitchen keeps its original charm with a built-in hutch and brick composite accent wall, updated with a new stainless refrigerator and oven. One bedroom offers an extra-long closet with upper storage hatches; the second leads to a back concrete patio. A full bath includes tile floors and storage shelves, and the laundry room is huge with a skylight. Outside, the fully fenced backyard has retaining walls, wood privacy fencing, fruit trees, berries, lilac, lavender, and raised garden beds. A detached two-car garage has alley access, a concrete pad, and a back fence double gate for car or trailer access. An attached carport and concrete driveway add more parking up front. Fresh exterior trim paint completes this great neighborhood setting.
