Property Description

A One-of-a-Kind Mid-Century Classic in the Heart of Lacey! Step back to a time when homes were crafted with real wood, generous rooms, and spacious lots. This charming 1950s rambler has been the longtime home of an internationally credentialed artist, and her creative influence remains throughout the home—an eclectic blend of art, personality, and imagination that makes this property truly unlike any other. Three bedrooms feature built-in storage and are conveniently located across from the main bath. The spacious living room showcases beautiful hardwood floors, a fireplace, and built-in bookcases, while the kitchen opens to a large family room and a distinctive bath arrangement. A generous pantry/storage room adds valuable functionality. Outside, the expansive backyard offers plenty of room to relax, entertain, garden, or create. Enjoy the covered patio, workshop, additional storage, and a separate artist studio tucked into the far corner of the property—perfect for a home office, den, reading retreat, hobby space, or creative studio. Be sure to notice the artistically sculpted evergreens that add even more character to this special setting. All this in a convenient Lacey location close to shopping, services, schools, and everyday amenities.
