About This Home
As of July 2023This home lives much larger than it looks & has 5 large bedrooms plus "flex" areas including a dining/sun room off the kitchen. In 2002, the home was taken down to the studs & a 2nd story was added with permits & final inspections, but retained single level living. There's a brand new range & in 2019 new roof & W/D then, in 2021 incapsulated the crawlspace . The sunsets from the front porch or upstairs rooms are phenomenal, as is the walkability to downtown, WWU & all kinds of amenities. The front yard is fenced & has a new walkway & raised garden beds. There's parking for 4+ vehicles off the alley & the back door enters the laundry/mud room off the kitchen. The seller lived there for a few years & then rented it for $3,890 per month.
