About this property
Welcome home to your own private oasis on Kent's West Hill. This spacious 4-bedroom, 1.75-bath, 3,013-square-foot home sits on a secluded 0.35-acre lot at the end of a private drive, backing to a city greenbelt, with a flexible floor plan and abundant living space. The open floor plan is made for entertaining, with vaulted ceilings, a wood accent wall, and an abundance of windows plus striking art-glass accents framing sweeping city and territorial views of the valley below. Cozy up to the brick fireplace, or gather in the updated kitchen with slab granite counters, stainless appliances, a walk-in pantry, and room to eat in. Ductless mini-split heat pumps keep things comfortable year-round. The remodeled primary bath features a spa-style walk-in shower. Outside, the home is beautifully landscaped throughout, with a park-like backyard featuring well-established Japanese maples, evergreens, and more, creating your own private retreat. The fenced backyard also offers a gardener's paradise, fruit trees, garden space, and terraced grounds, plus a deck and patio. Attached 2-car garage. Minutes to I-5, Boeing, and area golf courses. Homes on this street rarely come up, don't miss this rare mix of privacy and convenience.
