Don't judge this one by the map. The home sits farther from I-5 than it looks, with two sound walls in between, and double-pane windows inside. Come see, and hear, for yourself. Tucked away just off the beaten path in Northgate, it's walkable to just about everything. Northgate light rail station is an easy 0.8-mile walk, the new Pinehurst station is 0.9 miles away, and shopping is even closer. Getting on and off I-5 and the I-5 express lanes is easy, so the commute to downtown and beyond is quick. Don't judge it from the street either: it's much bigger inside than it looks. With 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths and 1,880 square feet, there's room to spread out. The 6,930-square-foot lot gives you a private backyard with space to garden, entertain, play or just hang out, plus plenty of off-street parking out front. The sellers took care of the big-ticket improvements. Both bathrooms are remodeled, there's new luxury vinyl plank flooring upstairs and new carpet downstairs, and mini-splits in every room provide efficient heating and air conditioning. The kitchen has granite counters, the downstairs rec room works for movies, workouts, guests or a home office, and the oversized laundry room with a utility sink adds useful storage. More space than you'd expect, the updates you want, and a location that makes everyday life easier.
