About this home

Welcome to 1624 James Street, a York neighborhood charmer with some great upgrades, a lot and half, alley access and a solid garage! This two-bed one-bath cottage style home sits on the northern portion of an expansive, flat lot with great access to all the amenities that downtown Bellingham has to offer just minutes away. Unlike many homes of this vintage, this one has been upgraded significantly with a poured concrete foundation, modern wiring throughout (no knob and tube), vinyl double paned windows, a recently serviced forced air furnace, a good roof, and a great looking kitchen. This home is in area 5 of the York neighborhood which has a minimum lot size of 3,000 square feet. This lot is 6,700 square feet, so is therefore a great candidate for splitting. With access from both James street and the alley, this is a great opportunity to purchase a great little house with some serious upside. Live in the house while splitting the lot or simply enjoy the big yard and a nice sized garage.
