2 BEDROOM CONDO IN THE STADIUM DISTRICT
A rare find - Stylish and immaculately kept, two bedroom condo in the Stadium District of Tacoma. Like-new oak hardwood floors, high quality plantation shutters, plus fresh paint on the walls and trim throughout. Two sizable bedrooms and full bathroom upstairs. Subway tile spans tub to ceiling and flooring is classic penny round. One reserved parking spot plus a large storage locker in the basement! All located a stone’s throw away from Wright Park, Stadium Bowl, Link-Light Rail (coming soon!) and so much more.
“Being in the middle of the city, yet easy enough to walk to the waterfront, any number of parks; Feel like a coffee? Walking distance to Starbucks, Anthem, PLUS quaint independent coffee shops! Hungry? Forget UberEats! Get out and walk! Easy walking to the Rhein Haus Restaurant (German Cuisine), several Asian places, The Art House Cafe, (and many others!) and who could pass up Frisko Freeze? The iconic, most wonderful hamburger joint? (and hey, if you walk there, you can afford the carbs and calories!) The Proctor District and 6th Ave are walkable....as well as the jaunt down to Ruston Way... (Freedom Fair? No worries on where to park- just walk on down the hill); I may work in Lakewood, but because of easy freeway access, my commute is usually about 10 minutes! Wright Park? No matter the season, it offers beauty galore! And don’t forget the hidden gem in the park- The W.W. Seymour Conservatory! The park gives you not only walking trails among the beauty of nature, but it hosts various festivals & concerts... Autumn brings nature’s paintbrush to new and exciting levels with the changing of the leaves, as does spring, when the blooming and flowers announce the start of new beginnings! Shopping?? Stadium Thriftway and The Metropolitan Market! (need I say more??)”
There is a local tavern, Hank’s, that makes a mean pizza pie. Some other eateries and amenities in addition to what’s been mentioned that you should know about are - Parkway Tavern, Indo Asian Street Eatery, Shake, Shake, Shake, La Bella Nail Spa, The Copper Door, Morrell’s Dry Cleaners, King’s Books and so much more just by exploring!
Make it a date night and enjoy local, community art at the Tacoma Little Theatere - Small community performing arts center dating to 1918 with 6 plays per year & educational programs. Enjoy a murder mystery dinner of Foul Play on the Speedway that’s filled with fun or perhaps children will enjoy the Willy Wonky, JR Spring Break Camp!
Dave’s Meat and Produce has been a long standing staple in this neighborhood. They also offer a small selection of produce, beer and wine, condiments and breads. On the weekends they have a burger & fries stand out front if you don’t feel like firing up the grill yourself.
Just two minutes away is a neighborhood favorite, Garfield Park. Tucked behind the Annie Wright School with views of Commencement Bay sits a 5 acre space with a quarter mile of outer track play and fitness equipment, sports courts and a trail that winds through a canopy of trees in the Garfield gulch.
The schools are highly sought after in this area. Stadium High School is a historical Tacoma landmark and was the filming location for many of the scenes in the 1999 movie 10 Things I Hate About You. Students here test high in math and higher in reading.
The location of this home provides easy access for commuters with the freeway just 7 minutes away! And soon you’ll be able to get around easier to neighboring areas including downtown when the Tacoma Link Light Rail expansion is completed in 2022.
