Freshly remodeled and ready to move in! This very private, 2 bedroom/1 bath downstairs duplex unit will knock your socks off! It recently went through a complete remodel -- new laminate wood flooring, vinyl windows, doors, paint, you name it! Spacious 928 sq.ft.
This cute downstairs unit is both quiet and secluded. It is recessed quite a ways off 1st Ave. S and hidden from the hustle and bustle of 1st Ave. S. Its seclusion is an urban oasis! The central location provides easy access to shopping, parks, bus lines, I-5, SeaTac Mall, Browns Point and Puget Sound, schools, and the infamous Federal Way Aquatic Center with its Olympic-size pool.
The large living room has room for a nice sized sectional couch. You can enjoy cozy evenings in front of the fireplace watching your favorite movie. Behind the living room is an extra space that is perfect for a home office.
The open kitchen off the living room allows you to entertain with ease. Newer appliances include: fridge, range, built in microwave, and a double stainless sink. A window over the sink lets you look out on the backyard while washing dishes. Note: no dishwasher. Wrap-around solid wood cabinetry and plenty of counterspace make meal prep and clean up a breeze. There's plenty of room for a dining room table next to the kitchen.
A bay window sets off the master bedroom, and offers a cozy view of the large, private backyard. The two bedrooms in this unit are average in size. Sliding mirrored closet doors in each bedroom help expand the space even more. Both bedrooms are served by a large, 3/4 bath with a stackable washer/dryer for convenient laundry.
This particular unit is VERY private and secure -- no one knows you are living there!! There is a long driveway off of 1st Ave. S. Noise is not an issue whatsoever -- this unit is quiet. Please be advised entering 1st Ave. S from the driveway during commute hours could pose a challenge.
Enjoy the covered patio and large yard on summer afternoons. The long driveway has ample room for multiple cars. The fenced back yard is big enough for a volleyball, badminton, croquet and other yard games. The gazebo in the corner adds a nice touch. There is a large storage room just off the main entrance that is available for an additional monthly fee.
