This 1926 craftsman home in the Birchwood neighborhood offers so much potential for sweat equity, whether you're looking to update the home or for future development. Many original charming features remain in the house, including the beautiful wood floors and built in dining room hutch. For modern conveniences - a home addition in 2002 increased square footage and provides a roomy kitchen, living room, primary bedroom and bathroom with jetted tub. Vaulted ceilings and a large skylight in the addition make the space light and bright. The house sits on over half an acre of land within Bellingham city limits...allowing for potential ADU and/or D-ADU options. Don't miss the three car, 40' x 20' detached garage with lots of room for vehicles, storage, workspace, etc. All this in a great location near trails, parks, and retail.
