Property Description
Welcome to this beautifully updated single-level home in Bellingham’s desirable Columbia neighborhood. With 3 beds, 2 baths, and an open-concept layout, this move-in-ready home blends comfortable everyday living with a long list of quality improvements. The inviting living/kitchen/dining room is anchored by a gas fireplace with a custom porcelain tile hearth and painted brick surround, creating a warm focal point. The heart of the home is the remodeled kitchen, featuring soft-close cabinetry, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a large island with storage on both sides—perfect for gathering, cooking, and everyday life. Both bathrooms were remodeled in 2024, while newer LVP flooring, solid-core interior doors, wood trim, and fresh finishes throughout give the home a clean, cohesive feel. Major updates include new windows, siding, gutters, and exterior paint, plus a newer furnace. Outside, enjoy a new Trex front porch, poured-concrete patio, carport, and updated walkways, along with garden space and fruit trees. The location is hard to beat, with easy access to Squalicum Creek Park, trails, dog park, ball fields, sport courts, and Little Squalicum Park. Comfortable, stylish, and thoughtfully updated, this is a home that makes it easy to settle in and enjoy Bellingham living.
