831 Valencia Street, Walla Walla, WA 99362
What's special
Valencia Cottage is a sweet 1926 two-bedroom, one-bath bungalow where historic charm and modern comfort come together in one of Walla Walla’s most beloved neighborhoods. On a quiet, tree-lined street just two blocks from Whitman College and close to downtown, shopping, schools, and parks, the cottage retains a farmhouse sink, fir countertops with integrated drainboard, built-ins, coved ceilings, picture rail, and graceful arched doorways. Thoughtful updates include electrical, plumbing, sewer, insulation, energy-efficient mini-split heating/cooling, and high-speed fiber internet. Original picture windows overlook the garden, flowering cherry trees, and duck pond across the street, while Barber Creek runs behind the property. Enjoy lemonade or wine on the front patio or savor the tranquil fully-fenced backyard, with fruit trees, berries, grapes, and a charming chicken coop. In addition to the primary bedroom, a flexible second bedroom with a Murphy bed/desk is perfect for guests, an office, a studio, or workouts.The tiny backyard cottage will be removed before sale, leaving a ready-to-use site with full utility hookups (electricity, water, and sewer) for an easily permittable future ADU, studio, or tiny home. A long driveway provides ample off-street parking. Available as a turnkey furnished rental or ready for your beloved furnishings. A rare little home with a century of stories—and room for the next chapter. Welcome home!
