Who could pass up a cheerful farmhouse with charm to spare?

With a wrap-around porch like this, the next owners have plenty of reason to invite friends and family over on a regular basis. Guests will be captivated by the ambiance and tranquility of the property, but also entertained by chickens in a coop, fresh picked fruit from established trees, and vegetables hand gathered from the raised garden.

Creature comforts such as high end appliances, hardwood floors, and skylights round out the overall appeal that would suit many moving to Bremerton. For the future owner out there, take note: the property comes with approved 3-car garage plans.

4) Embrace Open Concept Living in This Dupont Home for Sale

Striking, dark exterior trim catches the eye and punctuates the unique architectural details of this house. The perfectly sized covered front porch is ideal for an afternoon of playful activities or an evening that ends with a glass of local Washington Pinot Noir.   

Mimicking the expansive Northwestern skies, the interior features high ceilings which provides an abundance of natural light and the feel of “airiness” that so many buyers are looking for. Add in the open concept living feature, and the home feels more than spacious. All of the bedrooms are located upstairs, to include a master with an adjacent balcony to take in the views of the private courtyard.

Lush and green front and back yards are the backdrop the next fortunate homeowner has to host parties and casual gatherings all year long.  

5) Tacoma Home for Rent with Classic Curb Appeal

 

Classic curb appeal doesn't get much better than this: storybook Tudor cottage design with hillside perch views of the Puget Sound and the Cascade mountains.

Renters interested in a family-centric property, take note. Generous living spaces are designed with kids and playtime in mind, while four bedrooms and three baths ensure there is ample opportunity for everyone to have privacy when needed.

Natural light is plentiful throughout the home, but especially in the bedrooms upstairs. The master bedroom has an en suite, while the other bedrooms have water views.

When the weather is favorable, both the front and back yards are idyllic settings for rowdy games of hide and seek, but at the same time, the deck provides a perfect place for a quiet dinner outside. Just imagine sunset filled evenings, while overlooking the water.
