Don't let the square footage fool you. This sweet NE Tacoma cottage lives so much bigger than 716 sq ft suggests. Fresh interior paint, genuine character, and a layout that just works, making this one feel like home the moment you walk in. And that detached garage? At 648 sq ft with shop space and alley access, it's nearly as big as the house itself. A dream setup for the hobbyist, the woodworker, or anyone who needs serious room to spread out. Then there's the land. A 9,000 sq ft lot with alley access. Buyers with vision will want to take a closer look at what this property has to offer beyond the front door. All of this in one of Tacoma's most established and loved neighborhoods. NE Tacoma is known for its strong sense of community, easy freeway access, and proximity to shopping and entertainment. Move-in ready as-is. Room to dream bigger. Come see it. This one has soul.
