2712 N Cedar Street Tacoma, WA 98407

This 2-story North End home between Proctor and Old Town offers 1,890 sq ft of finished living space, plus a 532 sq ft basement, a beautiful garden, and a detached garage.

Open the door from the arched covered front porch to a living space featuring hardwood floors, a library, and a dining room.

A gas insert fireplace gathers people to the living room in fall and winter.

Hardwoods continue into the dining room overlooking the front and side gardens with lilac and butterfly bushes just outside the windows.

1920s craftsmanship shows in the arched opening into the dining room and the cased opening into the library with its wall of built-in shelves and cupboards below. Notice also the closet at the back of the library—a perfect place to stash coats.

An open doorway connects the dining room to the eat-in kitchen.

Set up a table in the breakfast nook for meals overlooking the back garden. A mudroom with a door to the back porch (a porch newly built in 2023) offers a place to leave shoes, hang up jackets, and wipe paws before coming inside.

Open the back door and take the steps down to this fully-fenced, beautifully planted, and well-maintained garden. An apple tree gives shade, smoke bushes provide color, a lilac offers sweet spring scents, and healthy hostas line the wall of the garage. Don't miss the custom-built greenhouse too. A sprinkler system helps keep the garden green and growing.

Now that we've had a quick preview, take a more full look at the interior. Fill the library shelves with books, favorite shells, items brought home from travels, and tuck your record collection and other items into the cupboards below.

This space is a wonderful extension of the living room—set up a cozy reading area, or make space for a desk as shown here.

The leaded glass front door with matching sidelights brings even more light to this east facing living room with windows to the front garden.

Freshly painted walls and the warm tones of hardwood floors provide a perfect canvas for your furnishings. Enjoy regular Tuesday night meals with the garden for company, then set the table for holidays with linens, flowers and candlesticks.

The eat-in kitchen features a gas range, oven, dishwasher, and refrigerator. A tiled backsplash reaches from the counter up to the cabinets.

You'll find tile counters on one side and wood on the other with a desk area at the far end where open shelving for all your cookbooks waits above.

A pantry closet provides more storage right around the corner from the wooden counter. Just past the refrigerator a doorway opens to the staircase down to the unfinished basement.

The kitchen is in good working order with a practical layout, but you could choose to make updates to flooring, cabinetry, and appliances to really suit your style.

A short hallway extends from the kitchen to the main floor 3/4 bath on the left with a window to the back yard. Bathrooms are in working order, but ready for updates to your taste. A built-in linen closet offers storage just outside in the hall.

Just beyond the 3/4 bath you'll find the main floor bedroom. Windows face west over the back garden and north.

With 2 more bedrooms and a bathroom on the 2nd floor, this main floor bed and bath give great flexibility to the home.

Take the stairs up from the living room. A built-in storage cupboard and a skylight greet you at the top of the stairs. The door just to the right of the built-in opens to storage space under the eaves.

The first of two upstairs bedrooms is right at the top of the stairs. Slide the closet open in each bedroom to reveal hardwood floors in the closet space.

Windows face north in this freshly painted bedroom.

A large, bright landing space is lit by overhead light and windows facing south. This is a space for an additional sitting room, exercise spot, or maybe a play area. With the bathroom at one end, and the front bedroom at the other, it could also be reimagined/reconfigured to create a primary suite.

The full bath is in working order, but it's probably time for some updates. Consider creating a dormer to make a larger bathroom with increased ceiling height. The good thing about having two bathrooms is you could update one while still using the other.

The landing includes a large closet. This home offers plenty of good storage from built-ins, to extra closets, open areas in the basement, and a detached garage.

This 2nd upstairs bedroom is located off the landing. Again, you'll notice the closet has hardwood flooring

The two sets of east-facing windows overlook the front garden and birch trees.

The fully-fenced back garden is already planted with a variety of blooming bushes, perennials, and flowers that bring color and interest in different seasons. It's a peaceful oasis with a lovely mix of sun and shade.

This greenhouse soaks up the sun. It's an ideal spot to start seeds, to fill with potted plants, or just to sit and enjoy a bit of warmth. Windows overlook the neighbors' vegetable garden.

The single-car detached garage opens to the alley on the south side of the lot. A gate near the garage leads into the fenced yard.

The garage is cleared out and ready for your car or for tools and a workshop space.

The front garden is planted with hydrangea, pine, a fig tree, butterfly bushes, periwinkle, bluebells, and ferns. A paved path leads from the sidewalk to the front porch.

In the side garden along the alley you'll find a pink dogwood, euphorbia, pink spirea, cape fuchsias, lilac, and more.

Take the stairs down from the kitchen to the laundry area in the unfinished basement.

A large room extends beyond the laundry space. There's decent height down here, no known water entry, and 532 sq ft of space to work with.

The back door offers separate entry via a short stairway up to the fenced yard.

Old Town Park is just 1/2 a mile down the hill, and you'll reach the waterfront and Old Town Dock in under a mile. Set amid the architectural variety of the North End, this is a perfect spot from which to explore.

Also set near Proctor, this home is just a couple of blocks from restaurants on N. 26th and under a mile to the markets, shops, schools, and library in the Proctor District.

Parks, beaches, the post office, schools, cafes, and groceries are easy to reach from this ideal Tacoma location.

This 1920s 3 bed, 1.75 bath home set on a 4,000 sq ft lot is ready for its next caretakers to come along.
