About this home

Turnkey 1960s rambler on an extra-large, almost,~1/2-acre lot! Move-in ready and full of charm, this home offers a new roof, fresh bedroom paint & almost new carpet. The spacious living room features a cozy gas fireplace with its original brick surround, while the primary suite showcases beautiful exposed hardwood floors. Crawl space just insulated and updated, and a 1-year-old washer and dryer can stay. Bring your design ideas and make this home your own! Enjoy plenty of parking and room for RVs, boats, toys, or future possibilities. Just minutes from downtown Bellingham with a peaceful country feel. For investors, an excellent location to hold as nearby development continues to expand, with multifamily development already established just west on Dewey.
