About this home
Private 3-bedroom Kent home backing to woods, with no HOA, RV parking, and the Soos Creek Trail one block away. This 1,860 sq ft, 3 bed, 2.25 bath home (built in 1986) sits in a desirable Kent neighborhood with a generous size lot. Wooded open space borders both the side and rear of the property, giving you real privacy and a peaceful natural setting and a fully fenced backyard. The large Trex-style deck is the perfect spot to relax and watch the birds. The Soos Creek Trail is a block away, and Fairwood Plaza is less than 2 miles from your door. Main floor: The spacious living room has a cozy gas fireplace, and there's a formal dining area too - or use it as an office or bonus room. The kitchen has quartz counters and opens to the living room, which makes it easy to cook, entertain, and keep everyone together. The kitchen has a large island with room for stools, plus a walk-in pantry. New carpet downstairs and a convenient half bath complete the level. Upstairs: The generous primary suite has a walk-in closet and a private en-suite bath. Two more spacious bedrooms share a full bathroom. Location: You're close to parks, schools, shopping, dining, and major commuter routes, so it's quiet at home but easy to get anywhere.
