Tucked into the heart of the Roosevelt neighborhood, this inviting Bellingham home blends comfort, convenience, and flexibility just minutes from Trader Joe’s, Barkley Village, parks, restaurants, and the scenic Railroad Trail. Bright natural light fills the home through plentiful windows, while multiple access points lead to a fully fenced backyard designed for entertaining and relaxation. Enjoy evenings in the hot tub surrounded by mature landscaping, fruit trees, flowering plants, garden spaces, and a rare oversized double lot professionally designed by a former landscape architect. The flexible layout features four bedrooms, including a main-level primary, abundant built-in storage, kitchen pantry, laundry/mud room, and mini-split heating and cooling for year-round comfort. Recent improvements include all new exterior doors and a professionally installed French drain system in 2025, plus a new sewer line in 2022 and water heater in 2024, offering added peace of mind for future ownership. A one-car garage, two-car driveway, and additional street parking provide uncommon flexibility on this quiet residential street. With a walk score of 71 and bike score of 76, the location supports an active lifestyle close to shopping, trails, schools, and daily amenities. Potential ADU or rental opportunities may exist, subject to buyer verification with the City of Bellingham.
