A house with a friendly face, a sunny doorway into a space of hardwoods and hearth, window light and welcome. Brazilian cherry floors extend from the living and dining room into the spacious, eat-in kitchen with a door to the fenced back yard—that’s where the lilac and hawthorn bloom, where the patio waits, where the garden grows. Two bedrooms and a full bath on each floor for you, for guests, for office space or artist space. An unfinished basement and detached garage for projects and storage, a new sewer line in 2020 for peace of mind. This home belongs to Central Tacoma and the vintage, vinyl and cafes of 6th Ave, and it’s just a 5 minute drive to Proctor markets too. Size, condition, location and character—this home feels complete.

The playground and splash pad are currently closed at Franklin Park, but if you need to get out for some fresh air, this community park is just minutes away and covers an area of more than 20 acres. There’s also a community garden that provides both physical and social benefits for people in the neighborhood. You can also find plenty of open fields to play in, a walking trail, ample parking, basketball park, a playground, restrooms and a picnic shelter. And on the rare occasion that Tacoma sees snow fall, this park has some mild hills that are used for sledding.
