Tucked into the sought-after Candlewood Ridge in the heart of Fairwood, this beautifully maintained 5 bed, 2.25 bath home offers ~2,800 sq ft of warmth, character, and a classic Northwest feel. From the moment you walk in, you’ll feel how well this home has been cared for. Exposed wood beams, rich trim, and vaulted ceilings create that timeless Northwest vibe—highlighted by a rare vaulted kitchen you don’t often see in homes of this era. The kitchen features granite counters, higher-end appliances, a large pantry, and flows into a unique adjoining living space. This split-level layout is a rare find with 3 bedrooms up and 2 down, offering flexibility for today’s lifestyles. The updated primary suite includes three closets, and bathrooms feature tile showers and quartz counters. New furnace adds peace of mind. Downstairs includes a wet bar—ideal for entertaining guests or multi-generational living. The 5th bedroom makes a perfect office or flex space. Enjoy a fully fenced, park-like backyard with Trex deck, hot tub, basketball hoop, blueberry bushes, and space to relax or play. Large 2-car garage with attached shop. Close to shopping, dining, and a great commuter location.
