Property Description

Full of character and set within Yakima's historic district, this three story home offers a glimpse into the area's past while blending historic charm with thoughtful updates. One of the area's early homes, the property was once surrounded by cherry orchards and retains its original woodwork throughout, including beautiful Swedish cedar plank flooring. The main living area features designer tin ceiling tiles, while the home offers 4 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, with 2 bedrooms and a bath on both the main and upper levels, plus an additional upstairs room ideal for a den, office, or nursery. A rare Pittsburgh toilet in the basement adds another touch of old-home character. Practical updates include an HVAC system approximately 5-7 years old, added attic insulation, an on-demand tankless water heater, and convenient upstairs laundry. Outside, the mature landscaping creates a park like setting with two impressive old growth cedar trees, established fruit trees and berry plantings, and a raised garden area. Enjoy the expansive back yard paver patio surrounded by LED lighting, while the circular drive features reclaimed brick from downtown Yakima's Main Street. A historic Model T garage works as a single-bay workshop to add to the property's unique appeal. Rich in local history, original craftsmanship, and established outdoor beauty, this is a special opportunity to own a piece of Yakima's past.
