Crafted Comfort - 7918 Bright Ct SW, Olympia

A Custom Home That's Been Cared For

Some homes just feel different. This is one of them. 

Set on nearly an acre in Olympia's Black Lake area, this custom-built home has been thoughtfully maintained and updated over the years. Instead of spending weekends tackling big projects, the next owner can simply move in and enjoy it. Major improvements like the roof, skylights, gutters, exterior paint, attic insulation, windows, and more have already been taken care of, and practical/cosmetic updates like brand new carpeting and a new refrigerator have also been handled. This is confidence and comfort in house form. 

Comfortable Spaces That Feel Like Home

The main living area is warm, welcoming, and filled with natural light. Vaulted ceilings make the space feel open without feeling oversized. A gas fireplace with brick surround and a clean wood mantle add character and make the home feel cozy throughout the year. Overhead, a ceiling fan keeps air moving. 

The kitchen has been beautifully remodeled with solid oak cabinets, granite tile counters, a stone backsplash, and a professional five-burner gas range. Custom wood knobs were created to tie in with the wood trim throughout the home. There's plenty of storage and a view that overlooks the fenced backyard, making it a space that's just as practical as it is inviting.

Downstairs offers even more flexibility. Stained concrete floors, a wet bar with a beverage refrigerator, and additional living space make it a great spot for watching the game, hosting friends, or giving everyone a little extra room to spread out. There's also an additional enclosed room with enough space to create a fourth bedroom, home office, or hobby room if needed. 

Enjoy the Outdoors

The covered deck is set up for easy evenings with a ceiling fan overhead and a gas hookup for the grill. The fully fenced backyard offers a space for the family pet to roam while leaving plenty of room for gardening or simply enjoying a quiet afternoon.

The oversized garage includes extra shop space and a vent fan to keep it dry. Just outside the garage door, a covered storage keeps seasonal equipment tidy, and the door includes a pet door for convenience. The long driveway and handy turn around space make parking easy for guests or extra vehicles.

If even more space sounds appealing, the adjacent corner lot is also available. It’s another acre of land, valued at $215,000 but offered at a lower price to the purchaser of 7918 Bright Ct SW. Buy the home at 7918 Bright Ct SW alone, or buy both parcels for added privacy and space. 

Why People Love the Black Lake Area

Black Lake has a relaxed feel that's hard to find this close to town. It's peaceful without feeling isolated, and it's easy to get just about anywhere.

Costco, Trader Joe's, and Capital Mall are all about a 10 to 15-minute drive away, so errands don't take over the day. Commuters also appreciate the quick access to Highway 101 and Interstate 5.

Local Favorites

One of the perks of living here is being close to some great locally owned businesses and outdoor spaces.

Love fun, local home decor and gifts? Sound & Vision Living is a local favorite.

For dinner, The Westwater Kitchen & Lounge serves creative Northwest dishes in a comfortable setting that's perfect for date night or meeting friends.

Looking to get outside? Kenneydell Park is a great place for a walk, time by the water, or 

simply enjoying the scenery around Black Lake.

When it's time for coffee, Two Sisters Coffee Co. is worth the stop for friendly service and excellent espresso.

For something uniquely Washington, Mima Mounds Natural Area Preserve offers miles of trails through one of the state's most interesting natural landscapes.

And if a casual evening sounds more appealing, Lakeside Taphouse is a great spot to grab a burger, enjoy a local beer, and catch up with friends.

Ready for What's Next

Homes like this don't come around very often. It's custom built, exceptionally well maintained, and full of updates that matter. Add in nearly an acre of land, flexible living spaces, and a location that keeps everyday conveniences close by, and it's easy to see why this property stands out.
