Southside living in Happy Valley, with Fairhaven Park and the Interurban Trail System nearly at your doorstep. This location is all about practicality and connection, situated moments from the WWU campus and the local shops at Fairhaven Plaza. Commuting is just as simple with quick access to I-5, the Ferry and Amtrak terminals, and the scenic waterfront at Boulevard Park. Inside, the home feels bright and modern, featuring a functional 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom layout designed for easy daily living. The updated kitchen serves as the heart of the home, flowing naturally toward a private deck that’s perfect for fresh air and quiet mornings. The main floor is particularly well-planned, offering a bedroom and a convenient 3/4 bath. Upstairs, you’ll find three additional bedrooms centered around a smart Jack-and-Jill bathroom. The dedicated laundry area on this level adds a layer of organization. Outside, the property is built for low-maintenance living with a lot that requires very little upkeep and driveway parking for four cars. It’s an honest, refreshed, and move-in-ready space that serves as a solid home base in a truly unbeatable location.
