Newly Renovated 1914 sqft, 3 bed, 2 bath, 2.05 acre home

The Home

Immaculate, completely renovated, single-story ranch style home in a nice, peaceful neighborhood, surrounded by forests and occasional wildlife on a large property (142\'x 629\') with private driveway. Brand-new quality: hardwood floors, carpet, tile, light-fixtures, and blinds. The walls and the large covered front porch (7\'x30\') and rear deck (8\'x41\') are also freshly painted. Almost everything that you can touch is in as-good-as-new condition and move in ready. The things you would rather not touch, the furnace, the private well, the septic system, and the roof have all been serviced or replaced very recently so there will be no surprises. The house was built 3 ft off the ground so flooding is impossible, unlike most other homes in the vicinity. The living room is especially bright, but lots of natural sunlight reaches every room, except the walk-in utility closet, including skylights in each of the bathrooms. The open kitchen is attached to the dining room, which has a wood burning fireplace and easy access to the deck through a sliding glass door. The master bedroom is quite large with a great deal of closet space (both a regular closet and a walk-in closet) and a master bath that has 2 sinks, a shower, and a separate soaking tub. The 600 sqft (24\'x25\') over-sized 2 car garage is attached and there is plenty of room for an RV or boat in the fenced pasture behind the yard. Extra storage space is available in the garage, in the crawlspace below the house, and in the attic above. The pasture is horse-friendly and goes back further than you can see into a secluded, lightly-wooded copse, entered by walking up a gentle slope past the fenced corral. There\'s a gate connecting this property to the adjacent property if you want to use available stalls in the neighbor\'s barn to stable horses.

The Neighborhood

The land is yours, not a development\'s, so there are no HOA\'s or fees to contend with. The home is conveniently located. There are 5 shopping centers and over 102 different restaurants within 12 minutes drive. It\'s 2.5 miles to the Purdy spit: the nearest ocean beach and shopping center. It is 3.0 miles to one of the larger shopping centers: Costco, Albertsons, Home Depot, Target, Walgreen\'s, Starbucks, Subway, McDonald\'s, etc. There are exactly a dozen small to large parks, 2 golf courses, several pubs, coffee shops, and grocery stores within 5 miles. Downtown Gig Harbor is 5.0 miles away: shopping, waterfront, museum, marina, boating, and kayaking. The nearest Theater, Galaxy Uptown Luxury+, is 11 min away. The property is also close to schools. The elementary school, Purdy, is a 3 min drive. The middle school, Harbor Ridge, is an 8 min drive. And the high school, Peninsula, is a 3 min drive. The residence is in a healthy area. Besides the fresh air and pure water from its private well (both a luxury these days), within 8.5 miles, there are 3 dozen gyms and/or fitness centers, at least 3 full sized. The nearest public pool and gym is at Peninsula HS. The nearest YMCA is a 7 min drive. The nearest hospital, St. Anthony\'s, is 5 min away. The place is accessible.
