About this property

Step Into A Piece of Tacoma History! Built in 1904 as a trainmaster's residence, this extraordinary home is rich with character, history, & soul. Thoughtfully cared for through the years, it showcases architectural treasures salvaged from around Tacoma, including striking diamond-shaped windows & a captivating spiral staircase; irreplaceable details that give this home a story all its own. Completely gutted in 1996, it offers the charm of another era w/the confidence of substantial updates. Skylights bathe the interiors in natural light, while a beautifully remodeled kitchen with updated appliances (2021), newer roof (2017, with the kitchen roof replaced in 2021), & brand new furnace (2025) add modern comfort. EV charging wiring was added in 2026. 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths (one with jetted tub), a cozy fireplace all create a welcoming retreat. Outside, discover a huge, fully fenced private backyard featuring a 1,200 gallon pond & a fabulous new 20' X 25' patio with pergola (2025), perfect for entertaining, relaxing, & making memories. A 196 sq ft shed, once used as an apartment, offers exciting potential for a future DADU-style space, studio, workshop, or extra storage. Stroll to neighborhood favorites like Howdy Bagel, The Church Cantina, & Airport Tavern, & enjoy the welcoming community that makes this neighborhood so special. Historic charm, eclectic treasures, modern updates, & room to dream, this is far more than a home, it is a piece of Tacoma's story!
