OPEN HOUSE

Sunday, 10/22 11am-2pm

It sometimes defies logic why one house sells and another doesn’t for a while. This is such as super little house … it’s truly time for this to sell! It’ll make someone such a great starter home or even a rental perhaps.

Awesome location within walking distance to Kentwood High School. Lovely neighborhood! Close to Covington shopping and two different Highway 18 entrances/exits.

So what does it need? Well, there’s no dishwasher, which seems to be an issue. Really? No one washes dishes by hand in lovely little kitchens? It has a small bath … AND???? And no, there’s not a garage. And yes, someone might want to change out the baseboard heaters to wall heaters and even replace a few windows here and there.

But good grief! New paint inside and out, 2015 architectural roof, 2015 water heater, refreshed bathroom with new sink & vanity, TONS of storage. BIG laundry room that could easily house at least a half-bath. Laminate flooring throughout. Kitchen appliances stay with the home. A lovely fenced yard with garden boxes and a shed. Lots of off-street parking. And did I mention that it’s really cute?

 

 

 

Super cute! Only $275k 3 Bedrooms 1 Bath Covington WA Kentwood HS

Covington, WA 98042
MLS# 1192964

This darling little home is the perfect starter or perhaps an investment property for your rental portfolio. Three bedrooms and one bath (with maybe room for another), the home has been nicely refreshed for sale. Notice the almost new roof? And fresh paint? And neat and tidy landscaping?

Bedrooms are split, with the largest room in what was probably a converted garage (long ago). There’s a huge laundry / mudroom on the back side of the home behind this bedroom that just may be large enough to add a second bath if you need another. The kitchen was also updated with new cabinets and counters and all of the kitchen appliances remain with the home (move right in!).

The back yard is fully fenced and really large with garden boxes and a cute garden shed as well. Lots of room for play for both two-legged and four-legged friends.

Finally, talk about location! Walk to Kentwood High School or shop in nearby Covington or Kent. Highway 18 is just minutes away as well, which makes commuting much easier.

Description
The Bank took this one back and auctioned it for less than accept our much higher offer. Sometimes things just make no sense in the short sale world.

Bank approval was received today and this sale is READY! We have the attention of the bank negotiator too, he’ll move quickly if you do!!

At almost 2000 square feet, this is a BIG house for only $214,000. (Did I mention this price is APPROVED???) This rambler-styled home with fenced yard and great Timber Hills neighborhood, is located in convenient Covington, just minutes away from great shopping–Costco. Home Depot, Kohls–not to mention Highway 18 for easy commuting.

Through the front door is the main living area with the living, dining, kitchen, family, and laundry rooms, plus three bedrooms. In the master suite are an extra-long closet and recently updated 3/4 bath with tile floor & walk-in shower. Sliders just off the dining room lead to the fenced back yard, wonderful large deck with built-in seats, and patio.

Just four steps up and above the garage, is a huge 440 square foot bonus room, which could also be a very generous 4th bedroom as there are two deep walk-in closets.

Storage everywhere–There’s a pull-down attic stairway in the hallway leading to floored additional storage space. And a few steps down from the kitchen are an extra-deep double-door garage with openers, workbenches, shelves and storage.

You’ll need to replace the furnace, but the rest looks largely cosmetic. Should be a fairly easy fixer!

Walk through the front door to the living, dining, kitchen, family, and laundry rooms, plus three bedrooms.  In the master suite are an extra-long closet and recently updated ¾ bath with tile floor & walk-in shower.

Just four steps up and above the garage, is a huge 440 square foot bonus room, which could also be a very generous 4th bedroom with two deep walk-in closets. Don’t miss the pull-down attic stairs in the hallway leading to additional storage space! The home’s lower level is entirely comprised of an extra-deep double-door garage with openers, workbenches, shelves and storage.

Sliders just off the dining room lead to the fenced back yard, wonderful large deck with built-in benches, and patio. With minor repairs & new carpets, this home will be perfect for years of living. Offered as a short-sale property and priced to sell!
