Charming one-level rambler offering 3 bedrooms and 1 bathroom on a generous 12,632 square foot lot in Tacoma's Parkland neighborhood. The covered front porch welcomes you into a comfortable living room anchored by a classic brick fireplace, flowing into a bright dining area and a kitchen ready for your personal touch. The home's single-story layout makes for easy living, while the attached one-car garage and long gravel driveway provide ample room for additional vehicles, a boat, or RV parking — a rare find at this price point. Mature evergreens and a fully fenced yard add privacy and shade to the spacious lot, leaving plenty of room to garden, entertain, or simply spread out. Located just minutes from the Pacific Avenue retail corridor with its shops, restaurants, and everyday conveniences, and a short drive to Spanaway Lake Park and Pacific Lutheran University, this home offers an easy commute to I-5 and Highway 512 with the feel of a quiet, established neighborhood. A great opportunity for first-time buyers, downsizers, or anyone looking for single-level living with room to make it their own.
