Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac in desirable University Place, this well-built home presents an opportunity for buyers ready to bring fresh vision to a property with solid potential. The light-filled interior retains much of its original character, including charming built-ins and hardwood floors in select rooms. While the home is ready for updating, its functional layout and established setting provide a strong starting point for renovation and personalization. Outside, a spacious backyard offers room for gardening, outdoor living and entertaining, along with a garden shed for additional storage. New residential construction underway immediately behind the property reflects continued investment in the surrounding neighborhood. Bring your ideas and explore the possibilities, whether restoring its original character, completing a more extensive renovation, or creating a home tailored to your own style. A compelling opportunity to invest in a sought-after University Place location.
