Sold - Summit Homestead

At the end of the road a one-story farmhouse lives between an orchard and secluded meadow on a level, shy-acre framed by quaking aspen, fir, and ash trees. Approach on the paved and gated driveway which leads to a 2-car garage with attached workshop and canning room. Pick apples, plums, pears, cherries, and figs from mature trees; roam freely in the grass, and plant vegetables in sun soaked garden beds. Store your equipment in the big garden shed then head inside to prepare homegrown produce in the eat-in kitchen. Relax by watching the leaves change from the sun porch, curling up next to the wood stove, or soaking in the primary suite's private bath. This Summit homestead is perfectly placed between life in Tacoma and the heart of Puyallup.

Open the new front door, or let yourself in like family at the side door by the apple tree and settle into the eat-in kitchen. Refinished fir floors lead from the living room, under the archway and into the bedrooms while fresh paint creates a clean palette to make all your own. Don’t be fooled by the wood stove; a heat pump and programmable thermostat keep the house comfortable all year. Spend weekends on the patio, growing a garden in the fully fenced back yard, or tinkering and building in the 836 sq ft garage-shop with bay doors facing east and south. Find the laundry, storage space, a 2nd bath and brand new water heater in the separate entry basement. Just one mile to McKinley’s cafes and library—even closer to the park and playground.

Proctor District Home

Sold - Heart of Proctor

Sold - Heart of Proctor

Home is about place, detail and character. Here, the place is Proctor where the farmers market draws fresh flowers, wild mushrooms and ripe tomatoes. Where the cinema, library, cafe and grocery wait down the street, where the bell rings and kids fill the sidewalk. The details: a new roof in 2020, updated sewer and a fenced back yard. The character, now that’s where the fir floors, covered porch, snowball bush, begonias in the window boxes and arbor arching over the path come in. There’s a story here in which the 2nd floor could be another bedroom, maybe the back bedroom is an office, maybe a table stands in the living room corner to catch the morning light and the car doesn’t leave the garage much since the trails of Puget Park are calling.
