    What's special

    Recently renovated kitchenSingle-story livingUpdated bathroom
    The yard is the star of the show here, and it does not disappoint. Situated on an oversized 11,119 sq ft corner lot in Tacoma's Fern Hill neighborhood, this 2-bed/1-bath home is built for the way Pacific Northwesterners actually live. The centerpiece of the outdoor space is a massive covered patio with dedicated grill space and a mini fridge — plenty of room to host, relax, and entertain all summer long. The fully fenced yard provides privacy and room to roam, while an automatic gate adds a layer of security and convenience rarely found at this price point. The home also features exterior-access loft storage for bonus organization space, plus a detached 1-car garage. Inside, the 872 sq ft layout punches above its weight with a recently renovated kitchen and updated bathroom, delivering a move-in ready feel with modern finishes. Single-story living, a low-maintenance footprint, and an outdoor setup that most homes twice the size can't match. Come summer, you'll never want to leave.
