Welcome to your cozy cabin in the city. Wrapped in cedar siding and framed by towering evergreens, this 2-bed, 1-bath Kent retreat sits on 1.463 acres across two separate tax parcels — room to spread out and still have green space to spare. The covered wraparound deck with exposed beam ceiling and string lights sets the tone instantly — whether it's morning coffee, an evening around the fire pit, or simply soaking in the peaceful surroundings. The fully fenced backyard offers room to roam, the expansive gravel lot handles RV, boat, and trailer parking with ease, and a detached outbuilding adds storage or workspace. Inside, fresh LVP flooring, granite countertops, stainless appliances, a spa-inspired bath, and knotty pine barn doors make it warm and move-in ready. Immaculately maintained and lovingly cared for, every detail has been tended to. The pellet stove keeps you cozy all winter long. Steps from Lake Youngs Reservoir and miles of trails, yet minutes from shopping, dining, and commuter routes. Properties like this — truly one of a kind — rarely come to market. City convenience. Don't miss out on this one!
