Upgrades on upgrades! Brand NEW roof and insulation in attic and crawl space. Step inside and you’ll immediately feel the difference in this lovingly cared for and meticulously updated Bellingham home, where thoughtful improvements enhance everyday livability. Lower level could be the third bedroom, office, or play area. Refinished hardwood floors, updated lighting, and new vinyl windows allow the main living areas to shine, while the kitchen boasts butcher block countertops, added backsplash, a breakfast bar, new pantry, and upgraded appliances. Major system improvements include a new water heater and furnace, providing peace of mind for years to come. Outside, the home continues to impress with updated HardiePlank siding, cedar fencing, a welcoming front deck, and refreshed landscaping highlighted by a beautiful garden. A private backyard retreat features a patio with awning, making outdoor entertaining comfortable regardless of the weather. A large driveway, detached garage, and a rare backyard office/studio add valuable flexibility. The location is equally exceptional, offering outstanding walkability and bike access to a wide range of local amenities including Cornwall Park, Squalicum Park, Meridian Haggen, Goods Market, Menace Brewing, St. Joseph Medical Center, and nearby trails to name a few. A move-in-ready gem in one of Bellingham’s most connected neighborhoods.
