Every once in a while a home like this comes along… the one you walk into and immediately know there's something special about it. Built in 1938, this rare Lakewood Cape Cod sits on just over an acre of beautifully landscaped grounds, offering the perfect combination of timeless character, updates that complement its era, and spaces that just feel good to be in. There's something about a home with history, one that's been lived in and loved, that you simply can't recreate. Hardwood floors, built-ins and classic architectural details blend seamlessly with stunning improvements that honor the home's heritage while making everyday living feel effortless. The rooms are generous, the layout is functional, and every space feels both impressive and incredibly welcoming. Imagine long dinners in the grand formal dining room, cozy evenings by one of three fireplaces, and summer days spent entertaining under the custom outdoor pavilion. Established landscaping creates a sense of privacy, while the expansive lawn, fenced garden beds and detached two-car garage offer endless ways to enjoy the property. The home has also been pre-inspected, with a report available fas requested. Not every home makes you feel something. This one does. Nearly 90 years of stories, and the next chapter is waiting for you to write.

What’s Nearby
In the middle of town, Lakewood Towne Center is Lakewood's central open-air shopping hub on Main St, with 60-plus stores, restaurants, a supermarket, and a movie theater, built around the civic center and city hall. An easy one-stop for shopping and errands.
Up Gravelly Lake Dr, Level Up Burgers runs from classic burgers to Indian-spiced builds like a tandoori chicken burger, a paneer tikka burger, and an Aloo Tiki potato patty. Wings and seafood round out the menu, served in a retro, gaming-themed setting.
On the north shore of American Lake, American Lake Park is the city's 5-acre lakefront park, with a swimming beach, a playground, picnic shelters, and a year-round restroom. It's also home to the public boat launch: $15 per launch (card only), or pick up a seasonal pass at City Hall.
For coffee, the closest Gravity Coffee is the Tillicum drive-thru on West Thorne Lane SW, one of three in Lakewood. The Washington drive-thru chain has been pouring since 2016, and the house picks include the Area 51 (white chocolate and crème de menthe) and the Retrograde, a blackberry-watermelon energy drink topped with lemonade.
Just down Gravelly Lake Dr, Lakewold Gardens is the 10-acre estate garden on the shore of Gravelly Lake, with Thomas Church landscape design, 900-plus rhododendrons, Japanese maples, and formal boxwood parterres. Visiting days shift with the season, so check the calendar before heading over.
