About This Home

As of March 2014

Having trouble finding that affordable entry leave home on a large lot with easy access to everything in Bellingham? Look no further than 3608 E Rusley. This is a great starter home on a huge fully fenced sunny yard that is just screaming for an owner with toys (everything from backyard jungle gyms to RV's) dogs, stuff, humans (big & little) to fill it up.
