Property Description

This is a great opportunity for those choosing to move away from shared wall living or dealing with HOAs. Charming bungalow with timeless character, thoughtful updates, and a private backyard retreat. The bright living room features a fireplace, built-in bookcase with pull-out desk. Easy flow connects the living spaces, with a bonus room offering flexibility for work, guests, or hobbies. Located 0.7 miles from Kent Station for food, shopping entertainment and a major commuter hub with access to the Commuter train into Seattle. Major system upgrades provide confidence and long-term value, including a new roof and water heater (2026), furnace (2021), sewer line improvements (2021), and extensive plumbing updates. Windows and garage roof replaced in 2018 with transferable warranties. Kitchen flooring updated in 2025, along with prior bathroom improvements and updated appliances. Step outside to a fully fenced backyard designed for everyday living. Enjoy a peaceful patio, mature landscaping, garden beds, and space to relax, entertain, or unwind. The setting feels quiet and secluded while still offering convenient access to freeways, SeaTac, Kent Station, shopping, parks, and local amenities. Oversized garage adds storage and function. Low traffic street and established neighborhood create a strong sense of community. A home that delivers character, comfort, and the systems buyers want already completed.
