Where timeless character meets modern luxury—this fully renovated 5-bedroom Ruston original is a rare find. Built in 1910 and reimagined in 2017, it blends historic charm with elevated design throughout. Inside, enjoy a spacious, sunlit layout with custom designer touches. The kitchen shines with stainless appliances, quartz countertops, and open flow. Two and a half spa-inspired bathrooms feature modern fixtures and stunning tilework. Outside includes a covered deck, smart sprinklers, and a carriage house garage/shop. With five true bedrooms—rare in this area—there’s space for all. Just blocks from Point Defiance Park and the Ruston waterfront, this is a chance to own Tacoma’s history, fully updated for today.
