Property Description

Originally built in 1902, this York neighborhood Craftsman offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Bellingham history in one of the city’s most walkable & beloved neighborhoods. Filled with warmth, character, & opportunity, the home blends timeless charm with thoughtful updates completed in a 2005 renovation, including updated electrical & plumbing, a more open kitchen designed for everyday living & gathering, & a modern full bath on the main level. A gas stove anchors the inviting living space, while original details throughout hint as the home’s craftsmanship & character. Comfortable & livable as-is, the home presents an exciting opportunity to thoughtfully personalize & elevate a historic home over time with immediate sweat equity potential. Just off the kitchen, the fully fenced backyard unfolds into an unexpectedly private garden retreat, with mature plantings & inviting spaces for outdoor dining, entertaining, or quiet mornings surrounded by nature. Situated on a corner lot with alley access & private parking right next to the backyard gated entry with keyed access, the property offers a rare blend of privacy & convenience in the heart of the city. Located moments from downtown Bellingham, local breweries, restaurants, the Community Food Co-op, Whole Foods, WWU, parks, & waterfront trails — & just steps from historic Nelson’s Market — this home captures the best of York neighborhood's history & connection to the community with exceptional walkability.
