About this home

Absolutely charming 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home, fully remodeled two years ago and lightly lived in since. The seller has truly babied it, and this home is in excellent move-in-ready condition. The main living space is open, bright, and comfortable, anchored by a surprisingly large kitchen with tons of countertop space–perfect for cooking, hosting, and conversing with guests. Neutral luxury vinyl plank flooring runs throughout. Both bathrooms are updated, including a tiled full bath plus a convenient half bath for guests. The permitted remodel was comprehensive and thoughtful, including a new roof, kitchen, baths, tankless hot water heater, flooring, paint, doors and trim, and updated electrical and plumbing. Mini-split system provides efficient heating and cooling. All of the big-ticket items are already taken care of so you can move in and enjoy life. The level lot is fully fenced both front and back. The rear parking pad is accessed from the alley and is long enough to store a boat or trailer, with plenty of street parking out front as well. The neighborhood is quiet and friendly, with sidewalks and people out walking dogs throughout the day. Just two blocks to perennial favorite Flora Bakehouse and an easy walk to Cleveland High School. Five minutes or less to the freeway, with quick access to your choice of popular restaurants and amenities in the Beacon Hill, Columbia City, and Georgetown business districts. A fantastic opportunity in a very convenient central location.
