With the intent to keep the home for years to come, the sellers undertook a major renovation in 2022. Their focus was on quality materials and quality of life. Combined with exceptional maintenance, they’ve created a truly turnkey opportunity for the next owner. The 2022 renovation included installing a new furnace and air conditioning, updating the main level bathroom, adding a brand new kitchen, and upgrading the garage with custom storage cabinets, racks, and shelves.

The new kitchen provides additional pantry space and extended upper cabinets. A massive island offers storage on both sides and is topped by quartz counters and a tiled backsplash. stainless appliances, a 5 burner gas range, and floor to ceiling pantry cabinets. All of the doors and drawers are soft close, and roll out shelves make reaching supplies and ingredients a breeze. Two toned cabinets add style and are well complimented by the main levels birch, hardwood flooring.

The garage is an organizer’s dream. Quality, California Closets storage cabinets and racks provide space to stack, hang, and store everything neatly. On top of the storage, the space is fully finished and painted with a flooring treatment added.

a little about the community

DuPont is a small town situated next to Joint Base Lewis McChord, about halfway between Tacoma and Olympia. Home to about 10,000 residents, DuPont consists of three distinct areas, Historic Village, El Rancho Madrona, and Northwest Landing. Homes vary by area and range from historic to northwest contemporary.

DuPont’s town center offers places to stay, eat, shop, and do business, and the city is home to an award winning golf course, multiple parks and green spaces, and over 12 miles of trails. For more information, check out the recent DuPont blog, Living in DuPont, WA.

looking for a fun day in the area

Start the day at Mince Mercantile for coffee and breakfast. Then, pop across the street to visit the Pierce County Library or escape the town on the Sequalitchew Creek Trail, where you’ll spot luscious foliage and hear the trickle of water as it flows to the Puget Sound. Time it right, and you may be rewarded with views of sea lions playing between the mainland and Ketron Island or sunning on the Shipwreck when you reach the Sound. Head back the same way you came, or veer right to head up the Switchback to Tree Tunnel Trail to catch views of the water from above.

Thai Taste and Viva Mexico offer great lunch options. I recommend following up with a trip to Bliss Small Batch Creamery. Then, spend the afternoon shopping at Pine & Moss and 27 West. Before you head home to prepare dinner, pop into Forward Operating Base Brewing Co for growler of craft beer or cider.

On Saturday, head to Powderworks Park at 9am to join the flagship chapter of wear blue: run to remember to honor fallen service members and walk, ride, or jog the 3 mile route, passing by Patriot’s Landing and greeting the residents that come out each Saturday to cheer on participants and hand out water and dog treats. Or, if you prefer to sleep in, you can sip coffee and watch participants as they come up Bob’s Hollow and turn onto McNeil.
