Nestled in Bellingham’s highly sought-after South Hill Historic District, this beautifully preserved Arts & Crafts home offers a rare blend of timeless character & modern refinement. Originally built in 1890 and thoughtfully reconstructed in 1929, the residence showcases architectural details from both eras while delivering the comfort & convenience of modern living. The main home features 3 bedrooms & 2 bathrooms, along with a spacious detached MIL studio (528 sq ft), bringing total living space to 2,442 sq ft. Ideal for guests, a private office, creative studio, or potential rental income, the detached space adds flexibility & value. Meticulously maintained and move-in ready, the property has seen numerous recent upgrades, including a new roof & siding, recent interior and exterior paint, new front and back doors, upgraded attic & crawlspace insulation, a new water heater, & a stunning Brazilian IPE hardwood front porch that enhances warmth and curb appeal. Also includes an ARCHITECTURAL FLOOR PLAN for a DETACHED GARAGE with HIGH CEILING & A ROOF TOP DECK—offering an exciting opportunity for expansion.
