Brimming with Potential! 3-Bedroom Home w/Large 4-Car Garage on Park-Like 0.4-Acre Property in East Auburn

Perfectly positioned on a large 0.4-acre property and surrounded by lush natural beauty, this home-sweet-home is ready to be reimagined to your liking! Built in 1941, this home has seen many improvements over the years, but it’s also in need of some interior updating. In addition to 3 bedrooms and 1 bath, a kitchen and adjacent living area are included in the 1,020-square-foot layout. Located at 2130 2nd St SE Auburn, WA 98002 and wonderfully close to both outdoor opportunities and city conveniences, this home is listed for $425,000. 

This property is conveniently fully fenced with a 6-foot chain link fence and a gate at the driveway for extra security. Currently, this home is served by septic that was installed in approximately 1984, according to public records. Improvements to the property include a private well and a large 4-car garage, and there’s even a new roof on the house and garage. 

The home itself is in reasonably good condition structurally. On the interior, you might choose to do a total renovation right from the get go, or you could decide to update things here and there along the way. Reimagine each space to show off thoroughly contemporary design, or embrace vintage elements and draw upon 1940s design to infuse each space with timeless charm and character. Either way, the opportunity to make this space truly your own is a dream come true for those looking to take on a project! 

The rest of the property offers a setting that’s hard to beat—a huge yard that’s completely flat is ready for lawn games, tossing around a football, or building an elaborate garden. Established greenery delights at every turn; large shrubs and tall trees offer a sense of privacy in the yard. On the expansive deck, you can host BBQs, set up a comfy outdoor dining and living area, or simply sunbathe on a lounge chair while you enjoy the wonderful peace and quiet. In the large 4-car garage you can keep vehicles out of the weather, work on projects, and use the space for storage galore.
