Step into a charming piece of Tacoma history, where timeless Craftsman character meets thoughtful modern updates. Held by the same family for 76 years, this special home features leaded-glass sidelights, warm wood floors, classic Craftsman doors, coved ceilings, and a formal dining room. The updated kitchen offers custom Erickson cabinetry, beautiful tilework, a garden window, and cozy breakfast nook. A permitted 12x14 solarium provides a light-filled retreat overlooking the fully fenced backyard, while the 952 sq ft basement with 8-ft ceilings offers excellent storage, workshop space, and future possibilities. Major improvements include updated windows, plumbing, roof, gutters, siding, chimney, insulation, efficient gas furnace, water heater, and fireplace. RV parking with 30-amp hookup and two garages add versatility, including a former Day Island boathouse relocated to the property. Local lore even says mules helped dig the basement! A truly unique Tacoma home filled with history, warmth, and character.
