Looking for space? This home has it! Beyond the 3 bedrooms, the home includes two bonus rooms that work beautifully as home offices, hobby rooms, workout space, or extra storage. The floor plan also features a huge downstairs rec room plus an additional 437-sq-ft loft above the massive 884-sq-ft garage (not included in the home’s assessed square footage). The main living room is the heart of the home, featuring a wood-burning fireplace, vaulted ceilings, and walls of windows that make the space feel bright, open, and connected to the outdoors. There’s storage everywhere, and the oversized garage leaves plenty of room for vehicles, projects, and all the gear that comes with Pacific Northwest living. Situated on a double lot, there’s a large, sunny lawn with room to play, garden, or simply enjoy having some elbow room. The wraparound composite deck, covered hot tub, hillside fire pit, and SVCA-approved tree fort with two slides make this a property that’s just as much fun outside as it is inside. The detached outbuilding was originally built as a sauna and could easily serve as a garden shed, workshop, additional storage, or be converted back into a sauna. Ample parking in the driveway, too! If you’ve been looking for a home that gives everyone a place to spread out, this is the one. Conveniently located just inside Gate 3, you’ll enjoy access to Sudden Valley’s two swimming pools, fitness center, parks, trails, playgrounds, golf course, marina, beaches, and more.
