About this property.

Discover a rare gem on Lea Hill: this classic 1953 rambler is an original neighborhood estate, offering a level of timeless character and a generous lot (nearly 13k sf) that simply can't be replicated. Perfectly situated in a prime, central location, this home has been meticulously updated to blend its vintage soul with key modern upgrades. Inside, you’ll see bright, open living spaces anchored by rich hardwood floors and a stately stone fireplace. The modernized chef’s kitchen features sleek quartz countertops, gas range & newer dishwasher. The expansive basement offers endless versatility featuring a private exterior entrance; perfect for a private guest suite, home office, or multi-generational living/ADU. This level includes a spacious 4th bedroom, 3/4 bath, massive rec room, and a dedicated workshop & storage room. Peace of mind comes from significant recent investments including a new roof, furnace & central A/C, updated carpeting, and a circulation pump for instant hot water. Step outside to your serene backyard to take in the views of Mt. Rainier from the composite deck & stylish metal gazebo. Ideally situated on a quiet cul-de-sac, this home offers a rare sense of privacy with no rear neighbors and peaceful paved walking trails just behind the property. Enjoy the convenience of a detached garage & covered entry, all while being just minutes from local schools, shopping, and effortless freeway access. Don't miss your chance to own this one-of-a-kind classic!
