Vintage Olympia charm in the heart of the desirable Bigelow neighborhood! This character-filled home offers a wonderful blend of timeless craftsmanship & everyday livability. Original details include coved ceilings, wood doors & trim, glass door knobs, hardwood flooring, built-in cabinetry and even a classic built-in ironing board - details absent in newer construction. The home’s vintage character creates a warm, inviting atmosphere while its Bigelow location puts you close to downtown Olympia, parks, schools, shopping, dining and neighborhood amenities. The main floor features 2 bedrooms, a full bath, living/dining room & kitchen. Upstairs, a flexible bonus area offers space for a home office, playroom or other retreat. The kitchen & bath retain their vintage character, offering an opportunity for the new owner to update & personalize them over time.

There's plenty of room for gardening, entertaining, pets & outdoor enjoyment, plus a backyard storage shed. Paved on-site parking accommodates cars or an RV, with additional street parking available. The unfinished basement adds valuable storage & utility space. It also offers potential for future hobby, craft, music or other flex space. Recent improvements include a 2020 roof, updated electrical system, new water heater and more. Own a piece of Olympia history with the character and craftsmanship of an earlier era.
