About this home

NEW PRICE: $389,000! Completely turn-key, fully refurbished home ready for its new owner or investor. Features a strong $1,900/mo rental history, pristine interior upgrades, 4 dedicated alley parking spaces, and an expansive corner lot with flexible UR-2 zoning. Move right in or cash flow from day one! Charming 1.5-story home on a 6,000 SF corner lot in historic Fern Hill. This property blends classic character with massive investment potential under Tacoma's UR-2 zoning. Use the large west yard to potentially build a second home, a triplex, or split it into up to three 1,000 SF child lots! The home was fully renovated from the studs out with updated insulation, a 200A panel, PEX-A plumbing, and vinyl windows. Inside, enjoy a bright living space with real cherry hardwood floors and a cozy gas fireplace. The kitchen features fresh paint, new quartz counters, and a white subway tile backsplash. The main floor bedroom leads to a southwest-facing 12x12' deck with southern views. Upstairs features new carpet, 2 bedrooms with sloped ceilings, and a bonus finished attic space perfect for play or storage. Systems include a brand-new gas water heater, a 4-year-old roof, and low-maintenance HardiePlank siding. The large lot is fully fenced and includes two 8x12' storage sheds, one fully wired with power. Location is unbeatable: kitty-corner to the Fern Hill business district, two blocks from the library and school, and 0.4 miles from Fern Hill Park.
