Full of character, warmth and thoughtful updates, this Northshore home offers spaces that feel collected over time rather than cookie cutter. A long front porch welcomes you in, where rich Craftsman-style built-ins and woodwork set the tone in the sitting room. The updated kitchen features quartz counters, a new refrigerator, eat-in island, large walk-in pantry and a sunny bay window with the perfect spot for your coffee bar and plants. The spacious family room is filled with natural light and features a fireplace with a chic new tile surround and mantel. Upstairs, the oversized primary suite is a standout with wood floors, box-beam ceiling, shutter blinds, walk-in closet and private bath. Every bedroom has its own walk-in closet, a double vanity in the guest bathroom, plus enjoy stunning views of Mt. Rainier! Main-floor laundry is tucked into the mudroom off the garage, complete with an additional shower and half bath. Outside, enjoy a private backyard, deck, bistro lights and hazelnut, cherry and apple trees. A 2024 furnace, 2020 water heater, newer garage doors, updated lighting and sewer work completed in Dec. 2024 add peace of mind. The home has also been pre-inspected, ask for the report. Just down the street from the elementary school, parks, golf and the Center at Norpoint. This one has the space, personality and updates to feel like home from day one.
