Unlock the potential of this 2-bed, 2-bath home in Tacoma’s desirable Fern Hill neighborhood! This property holds a special piece of local history: it was the final home built and lived in by Marvin Herstad, a well-known builder who crafted hundreds of Fern Hill homes over three decades. Designing this home for himself, Herstad focused on ultimate functionality, maximizing space and everyday livability. Today, this smartly laid-out property is primed for you to bring your design ideas and add instant equity. The big-ticket mechanicals are already handled: enjoy a 2-year-old furnace and heat pump for year-round comfort. Need room to create? An expansive 729-sqft unfinished basement with a private outside entrance makes the perfect workshop, hobby room, or storage hub. Outside, a detached 2-car garage offers even more storage and covered parking. Conveniently located just minutes from I-5, shopping, and neighborhood parks, this property blends everyday accessibility with incredible upside. This home is ready for its next chapter, bring your vision today!
