About this home

Located just minutes from the trails and waterfall of Whatcom Falls Park, this meticulously maintained home has a formidable list of capital improvements totaling nearly $60,000 meaning the heavy lifting has already been done for you. A new high-efficiency Rheem gas furnace installed in 2020 with new venting and ducting and backed by a ten-year parts warranty. In 2021, a full roof replacement was completed and all the LP siding was been replaced with Hardie Plank and painted, a $41,000 project package. The water heater was replaced in 2022 with a system built to current safety standards, including leak detection. Most recently, the home underwent a complete ENERGY STAR heat pump retrofit adding air conditioning, paired with a smart programmable thermostat for improved comfort and energy efficiency. Now that you're resting easy in a reliable, efficient and upgraded home you can enjoy the hood! Salmon Wood Nature Area is a short walk down quiet residential streets and you can be standing on the Whatcom Falls stone bridge in 10 minutes on your bike. Shopping and groceries are 60 seconds down the road by car and downtown is a few minutes more. You won't find another home at this price, with these upgrades located in the sought after Puget neighborhood so stop by soon.
