Welcome to this incredibly cozy cottage nestled in the highly desirable Columbia neighborhood. Located directly across the street from picturesque Elizabeth Park, this small but beautiful home provides idyllic park views right from your front door. You will love being steps away from summer concerts, lovely neighborhood walks, and close proximity to Columbia Elementary. This unbeatable location also provides fantastic convenience, putting you just minutes away from both downtown Bellingham and the waterfront. Boasting great curb appeal, this clean, move-in ready home features a sturdy and highly sought-after low-maintenance brick exterior. Inside, the nearly 1,200 square foot layout makes excellent use of its footprint, radiating warmth and classic character with great natural light. The well-appointed kitchen has been tastefully updated, providing a highly functional and completely move-in ready space without losing its original charm. One of the bathrooms has also received similar thoughtful updates, mirroring the tidy aesthetic found throughout this incredibly well-kept property. Outside, you will find a partially fenced yard with a lovely patio area, perfect for relaxing. As a wonderful bonus, this home includes a good-sized, remarkably functional 1-car detached garage—a truly rare and valuable find for the Columbia neighborhood—giving you secure parking and extra storage space. Don’t miss your chance at a piece of this classic neighborhood!
