Four Western Washington Listings Worth a Second Look
This week's picks are all under $700k, and each one has something that makes it stand out, from new roofs to a brand-new lake-view terrace to $3,000 in seller credit.
Older homes in North Everett have so much character, but they can come with a long list of repairs. This one already has a new roof, new windows, and AC, plus an oversized detached garage that works for a workshop, a home gym, or actual car parking. Historic North Everett is a great spot if you want to be close to downtown, the waterfront, and easy I-5 access.
Lake views usually come with a lake-sized price tag, so this one is a pleasant surprise! You get lake and territorial views, community beach access, and a brand-new terrace that's made for summer evenings. Inside, the bathrooms are remodeled and every bedroom has a walk-in closet. Lake Stevens is a fun spot if you want to be on the water frequently, and Lundeen Park is just a few blocks away for swimming and paddleboarding.
Two bedrooms can feel tight, but this rambler makes up for it with storage everywhere: a garage with EV charger wiring, a big backyard shed, and an extra parking pad for an RV or trailer. The 2021 updates covered the big stuff, including the kitchen, bathroom, flooring, and roof, and the new front deck with garden boxes is so cute. Mountlake Terrace is perfect if you commute, since you can walk to light rail and Ballinger Park, and I-5 is right there.
The backyard is why this one made the list. It's fully fenced with a patio, a grape arbor gazebo, mature fruit trees, and space for a garden, so it's perfect if you've been wanting room to grow your own food. Inside you've got real oak hardwoods and a wood-burning fireplace, and the seller is offering up to $3,000 toward a rate buydown or closing costs. View Ridge is a quiet neighborhood that still keeps you close to everything.
