This single-floor unit is thoughtfully laid out to maximize functionality and comfort. The entryway opens to a view of the living area and kitchen, where natural light from multiple windows fills the space with a warm, inviting atmosphere. The flooring transitions from tile at the entry to plush carpet throughout the living and bedroom areas. The kitchen is well-equipped with light maple cabinetry offering ample upper and lower storage, dark laminate countertops, and white Whirlpool appliances including a refrigerator, electric range, and over-the-range microwave. A peninsula with pendant lighting provides a casual dining or prep area and creates a natural division between the kitchen and living space. The living area is generously sized with soft carpeting and windows that invite abundant natural light. The bedroom features plush carpet, a large closet with built-in wire shelving for organized storage, and direct access to the bathroom. The bathroom includes a single-sink vanity with a warm laminate countertop, a large mirror, tile flooring, and a full-size soaking tub with a tiled surround. The unit's neutral color palette and clean finishes create a cohesive, move-in-ready environment.

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.
