This sweet South Tacoma bungalow is ready for its next owners with fresh paint throughout the interior and brand new flooring in the kitchen and utility room. Enjoy its current layout with two good sized bedrooms and an updated bath, or explore the possibility of finishing the large attic and greatly increasing the square footage. Relax year round on the covered back patio. Fenced back yard also holds an approx. 240 sq ft shop with 320 sq ft carport. Original hardwoods throughout. Sewer line replaced in 2024 and attic insulated 2022. Electrical has been updated and mini split offers the comfort of A/C. The heart of Lincoln International District is only blocks away and the newer Catherine Ushka's Gas Station park is a short walk as well.
