Tucked into a beautifully landscaped lot in Lynnwood, this 2,006 SF detached rambler is the rare kind of home that comes along once in a long while: true one-level living, thoughtfully maintained & beautifully updated, in one of the area's most convenient locations. Step inside to an open-concept floor plan where the kitchen, dining, living, & family rooms flow together around a floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace-an ideal layout for entertaining & everyday life. Quality craftsmanship shows throughout, from the wood-wrapped windows & wide base molding to the custom blinds & built-in seating with storage tucked into two of the bedrooms. Enjoy the dedicated office for remote working. Significant updates bring real peace of mind: dual paned windows, engineered hardwood floors, kitchen cabinets & granite counters, water heater, composition roof, central AC, interior/exterior paint, vapor barrier/ insulation. Both bathrooms are updated w/ tiled flooring, tiled showers, & granite vanities. Outside, the home is set back on the lot behind classic black wrought iron fencing, w/ new wood fencing enclosing the backyard. The grounds are the work of a true master gardener, offering seasonal color & charm & easily maintained with automatic sprinklers. A low $38.30/month HOA covers lawn mowing, no other obligations. Location is everything here: minutes to Alderwood Mall's shopping and dining, easy on/off access to I-5 and I-405, and just a five minute drive to the Lynnwood Light Rail station.
