Property Description

Priced well below tax-assessed value, this character-filled 1945 home offers a rare in-town opportunity on a level .55-acre lot in the heart of Tumwater. A rare find of a large lot for space and privacy, so close to everything. Tucked away on a dead-end street beside Michael T. Simmons Elementary, it is close to parks, shopping, the Tumwater Craft District, and commuter routes. The main floor features hardwood and cork flooring, a primary bedroom, office, laundry room with utility sink, and full bath with clawfoot tub. The spacious kitchen and dining area offer plenty of room to reimagine. Updates include a furnace and A/C in 2022 and water heater in 2020. A detached two-car garage with workshop space and unfinished basement add excellent storage.Reported minor settling of the house over the decades resulting in a +2" - -2" rise/lower of level over the perimeter of the house. Bids obtained, though each stated that the house might not settle any more, each recommended underpinning the foundation to the ground rock to guarantee stabilization. $54k to $68k. Home is priced accordingly. Bring your vision and unlock the potential.
