608 School Street Southeast

Welcome to a home shaped with care, creativity, and a deep connection to the outdoors. This 2,446 sq ft split-entry residence sits on a fully fenced 9,900 sq ft lot in Tanglewilde and has been thoughtfully developed over decades with an emphasis on naturalized landscaping, privacy, and year-round enjoyment. A full solar array offsets most electrical use, contributing to exceptionally low monthly bills. Inside, the upper-level creates a warm gathering space with built-in bookcases, window seating, and a wet bar that connects daily living with views of the surrounding landscape. The main level includes the living room, kitchen, dining area, primary bedroom, additional room/office, while the lower level offers two additional bedrooms and flex living space. Outdoors, the property unfolds into a series of garden and habitat zones with fruit trees, berries, tea plants, and five small ponds that support seasonal wildlife. A commercial-grade play structure, raised garden beds, and multiple seating areas make the yard feel like a private retreat. A 12’×16’ outbuilding was constructed with future ADU potential in mind and includes plumbing and electrical infrastructure. Recent updates include newer windows, a composition roof, insulated foundation wall, upgraded septic components, and newer furnace and water heater. Located near parks, an Olympic-size community pool, and everyday conveniences, this home offers a rare blend of comfort, sustainability, and outdoor living.
