Talk about a house with a ton of character, plus an abundance of privacy! Imagine a cozy, yet spacious, cabin in the city. 1,770 sq ft rambler w/vaulted ceilings. a step-down living room, and walls paneled in old-growth cedar planks. A potbelly stove welcomes you in the entry and the open living/dining/family room gives lots of options for furniture arranging. The kitchen with original tile countertops and cedar cabinets will make you smile. Even the large primary suite has vaulted ceilings with clerestory windows, and has a door to the very private back yard, deck and gazebo backing up to a greenbelt. Upgrades include a newer metal roof, a heat pump for heating and cooling, + newer windows. Garage + carport!
