About this property

Here's What You Really Get for the Money at 518 S 56th St...Drive up at sunset and you'll see it a classic Tacoma craftsman with solid bones, dressed sharp in fresh charcoal-and-dove paint. But the curb appeal is the least of what's going on here.Walk through the front door and the house opens up bigger than it looks. The living room wears a tray ceiling and a modern linear fireplace like a quiet flex. Past that sits the kind of kitchen people actually cook in, crisp white shaker cabinets, quartz counters that run for days, stainless appliances, and a center island big enough to host breakfast, homework, or a late night dessert. The main floor bedroom opens through black framed French doors to a covered back deck. Upstairs, more bedrooms catch morning light through oversized windows. The full bath is done right: white subway tile, glass mosaic accent, clean fixtures.Then there's the part that separates this from every other updated bungalow in the South End:A detached three-bay shop.Workbenches. Cabinets. Pegboard. Room for projects, toys, a side hustle, or the truck you've been promising yourself. Plus a fully fenced yard, alley access, and a covered patio for Saturday barbeques.Fully renovated. Move-in ready. Shop space most Tacoma neighborhoods simply don't have.Homes like this; turnkey inside, serious square footage out back; don't sit. See it this weekend before someone else has the chance.
