Thoughtfully renovated and full of opportunity, this Lincoln District gem offers the ultimate house hack with flexible living and income potential. Live in one space while generating rental income from the other, or maximize your investment by renting both levels. The main floor features a bright 2-bedroom, 1-bath layout filled with Craftsman charm. The inviting living room showcases a cozy brick fireplace, oversized mantel, and built-ins, while the beautifully updated kitchen offers new cabinetry, countertops, backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and a sunny eating nook. Fresh paint, new flooring, a newer side sewer line, a newer furnace, and a newer roof make this home move-in ready. Downstairs, the separate-entry lower level offers a private 1-bedroom, 1-bath living space with its own kitchenette. Currently rented month-to-month, it provides immediate income potential or flexibility for multigenerational living, guests, or a home office. Outside, enjoy a spacious backyard patio with a fire pit, detached one-car garage, and inviting covered front porch. Located in Tacoma's vibrant Lincoln District, you'll enjoy a walkable neighborhood close to downtown, shopping, dining, schools, parks, bus lines, and easy freeway access. Whether you're searching for your first home, an investment property, or a smart way to offset your mortgage, this Tacoma gem delivers style, flexibility, and built-in income potential. The full remodel upstairs comes with a transferable warranty.
