There's something about a clinker brick home that stops you before you even walk in — the character is built right into the bones. And unlike most homes of this era, it's been fully updated. That combination is genuinely rare. This classic corner lot beauty sits just a short stroll from the Proctor District, with hardwood floors, coastal colors, and artful lighting that make the inside feel just as considered as the out. The main level lives openly and easily — a sunshine-filled kitchen with a welcoming island and built-in pantry cabinets, a living space that flows the way a home should, and all three bedrooms on the main floor, the primary included. A second fireplace anchors the light-filled family room, and french doors lead you down to a quiet office or den — the kind of space that earns its keep. The finished lower level offers a second kitchen, laundry, a third bathroom, and access to the attached garage — flexible, functional, and full of possibility. Outside is where this property really opens up. A gracious entertainer's deck flows into a park-like backyard that feels private and spacious — patios, an outdoor brick fireplace, and room to breathe. The kind of backyard that actually gets used. Walk to Proctor. Stroll to 6th Ave. University of Puget Sound and neighborhood parks right at your doorstep. This is a location that gives back every single day.
