The kitchen features hardwood floors with easy access to a cozy tiled back patio. A comfortable family room anchored by a brick fireplace provides a retreat at the end of the day, while the adjacent laundry room includes a built-in desk area for added functionality.

Outside, a large, covered porch wraps around and connects to a patio with a picturesque trellis that's surrounded by mature landscaping offering privacy and year-round beauty. This is South Hill living at its best, walkable to Fairhaven, and close to everything that makes Bellingham feel like home.
