Some houses don’t change much in 4 years, but this one is so thoroughly updated a new buyer won’t have to think of anything. An interior remodel, new roof and electrical in 2020 got things started, then these homeowners went further with a new sewer line, siding, ductless heat pump and improved appliances like the full-size stackable washer and dryer. It’s rare to find 2 baths in a home this size, let alone a large walk-in closet. The house felt so good they built a cedar fence and transformed the yard. A gazebo shades the new patio, planters raise the gardening for easy care and a gate opens from the alley to a potential ADU, garage, or RV site. McKinley’s cafes are 5 minutes away and smooth I-5 access makes it easy to commute out of town.
