2419 northeast 14th street

Start with what's genuinely hard to find here: nearly half an acre, a three-car garage, and open parking out front for the RV or the boat, all minutes from I-405. Space like that usually means a long haul from the Eastside. This keeps the commute short in both directions, Bellevue one way, the Kent, Renton, and Tukwila corridor the other, on a quiet dead-end street in the Renton Highlands.Out back, the yard is the kind of space you plan a whole summer around. Room for the garden, the dog, the long table of people who stay past dark, and enough distance from the neighbors to actually hear the evening. The garage takes three cars and still leaves the RV out front, loaded and ready for a Friday getaway with no storage-lot detour.Inside, there's a spot for every version of your day. A den off the entry where work happens behind a closed door. A loft that becomes whatever the season asks of it. A kitchen that opens to where everyone already gathers, and a fireplace and territorial view to land in once the day lets go.The hard part is finding it. You just did. Everything else you look at gets measured against it.
