    Securing five off-street parking spaces in Bellevue is a massive win, and this thoroughly updated property delivers exactly that alongside an EV-ready charging setup. The main level prioritizes an open flow and high ceilings, anchored by solid hardwood floors and recessed lighting controlled by smart switches. The front living room centers around a decorative fireplace and 2017 replacement windows, moving right into a formal dining room outfitted with custom built-in shelving. The kitchen layout is highly functional, featuring a gas stove, peninsula seating for four, a tile backsplash, and a massive walk-in pantry to handle heavy storage needs. A dedicated first-floor laundry room and a main-level half bathroom keep daily routines efficient without requiring trips to the basement. Upstairs, the floor plan offers a major privacy advantage: every single bedroom pairs with a dedicated full bathroom. The primary suite includes a second decorative fireplace, ample natural light, and an en-suite bathroom with a double vanity and a custom-tiled walk-in shower. The second large bedroom utilizes an adjacent full bathroom with a pedestal sink, while the third floor provides a highly insulated, ultra-private bedroom suite complete with dormer storage and a stand-up shower. The dry lower level secures your investment by housing heavy-hitting mechanical upgrades so you avoid major out-of-pocket expenses early on. These include an upgraded 200-amp electrical panel, a 2017 furnace and AC unit, a 2019 waterproofing system with a newer sewer line, and a 2023 instant hot water heater. Out back, a rear patio prepped for a hot tub bridges the indoor living space with the retaining wall and your premium parking pad.
