About This Home
Own a piece of Olympia history with an immediate $1200/month mortgage offset! This 1920s Westside Craftsman perfectly blends historic charm with essential modern updates. The detached garage was professionally converted into a 297 sq ft permitted ADU with its own address, rented through Sept 30, offering instant income and future flexibility.The main home has kept its historic roots (original owner was Delta V. Smyth of the famous “Sandman Tug”) with original built-ins and hardwood floors, paired with modern peace of mind. Major updates are already done: updated electrical, metal roof, ductless heat/AC, new water heater, decommissioned oil tank, and replaced sewer line with new clean-out. The chimney has been reinforced and fitted with a cozy wood-burning insert.Enjoy a refreshed kitchen with quartz countertops, stainless appliances, and new microwave, dishwasher, range, and disposal. The permitted, partially finished basement offers additional living space with its own entrance. Outside find a gardener’s paradise with privacy fencing and a storage shed.
