About this home
Presenting a charming residence in the highly coveted historic South Hill neighborhood. This Arts and Crafts home blends timeless architectural character with thoughtfully curated modern updates. Originally built in 1890 and meticulously reconstructed in 1929, it showcases the finest details of both eras. The main home offers 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, complemented by an additional spacious detached MIL studio (528 sqft)—well-suited for private guest accommodations, a refined workspace, or potential income. Impeccably maintained throughout, the property offers a polished, move-in-ready experience. Recent upgrades include a new roof, siding, fresh interior and exterior paint, new front and back doors, upgraded attic and crawl space insulation, water heater, and a Brazilian IPE hardwood porch that adds warmth and elevated curb appeal. Including an architectural floor plan of a detached garage with high ceilings and a rooftop deck, presenting a rare opportunity for future expansion (will provide to serious buyers). Ideally situated in a premier walkable neighborhood, you’ll enjoy easy access to Fairhaven Village, local schools, Western Washington University, Taylor Dock, and Boulevard Park—placing the best of Bellingham just moments away.
