This single-floor unit offers a clean, modern aesthetic throughout, unified by light wood-style flooring and crisp white walls. The open-concept living area is a standout feature, bathed in natural light from a generous arrangement of large windows fitted with blinds, framing pleasant views of a tree-lined street and surrounding neighborhood. The kitchen is a visual centerpiece, showcasing a striking two-tone design with bold navy lower cabinets, white upper cabinetry, and a geometric patterned tile backsplash. Stainless steel appliances — including a refrigerator, range, and microwave — complement the light quartz countertops. A peninsula with an undermount sink and pendant globe lighting above adds both function and style. A hallway connects the living areas to the private quarters, with a bedroom featuring high transom-style windows that allow natural light while maintaining privacy. The bathroom continues the navy accent theme with a navy vanity paired with a white countertop, light wood flooring, and a tub-shower combo. Practical convenience is well-addressed with a dedicated laundry alcove housing a stacked washer and dryer unit. Throughout the space, recessed lighting, flush-mount fixtures, and thoughtful finishes contribute to a polished, move-in-ready feel.

As one of the most beautiful neighborhoods in Tacoma wrapped around a stunning historic high school, the Stadium District features lush hills, Victorian architecture, and stunning views of the bay. Stand on the sidewalk along North Stadium Way between the Washington State Historical Society building and the landmark Stadium High School and gaze out over the water. Then glance down -- the Stadium Bowl offers fantastic views of Commencement Bay and Puget Sound and is considered one of the best high school football stadiums in the country (you may have trouble focusing on the game, the view is so amazing).
The Stadium District is near Downtown Tacoma and is considered a business district. Here, you'll discover a variety of restaurants and shops, grocery stores and banks, coffee shops and corner bakeries. The district hosts several festivals and events, such as the Dickens Holiday Festival in December.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
