3020 21st Avenue SE Olympia, WA 98501

What curb appeal! That curved driveway gives a little drama on the way in and sets up a clean approach to a three car garage that actually fits real life. The exterior has been recently refreshed 2 years ago with paint and a professional roof soft wash, so it presents beautifully right out of the gate. Hardiplank in the front, T111 in the back, and those wood shingle accents up top all come together in a really cohesive, neutral color palette. Landscaping stays simple and tidy, so you get the look without signing up for weekend yard duty.

If backyard goals were a checklist, this one’s fully checked off. Turf keeps it green and low effort, the Trex deck gives you room to spread out, and the swim spa steals the show with a built-in staycation vibe. It’s just three years old with warranty time still on the clock, and whether it stays is up to you. You’re also wired and ready for two hot tubs, both 50 and 60 amp, so future upgrades are already handled. The slider off the junior suite lands right here, which makes this whole setup feel like it was planned by someone who enjoys life!

The covered front porch is ready for a couple chairs, a seasonal wreath moment, and that first cup of coffee before the day gets busy. There’s a glass storm door here too, so you can swing open the main door and turn the entry into a light-filled window looking out over the porch. You’ll also spot the video doorbell already in place, plus a full security system wired to all ground level doors and windows with both motion and audible features, so peace of mind is already handled.

This is the room that makes an impression the second you step in. The vaulted ceiling pulls your eye up, then those five windows stacked across the wall take over, bringing in light all day and giving the fireplace a proper backdrop. The gas fireplace sits comfortably with its tile surround, simple and classic, while the wood wrapped windows and pane detailing add just enough character. Underfoot, the thick maple floors add a rich, grounded feel that balances all that openness. The palette stays warm and neutral, so it feels inviting right away, and with the slider nearby off the breakfast nook, it’s set up perfectly for easy indoor outdoor flow.

From this angle, the room really shows off its layers. The fireplace becomes more of a focal point, complete with a mounted TV spot above, while those slate wrapped columns quietly tie back to the slate fireplace and add a little architectural weight to the space. The mix of materials feels intentional, wood floors, slate accents, soft walls, all working together without trying to compete. Up above, the second story hallway runs in a catwalk style, open to the room below but with a solid railing that keeps things feeling grounded while still giving that airy loft vibe. You also get a look at the staircase and a deep under stair storage closet that’s ready to hide everything from holiday bins to everyday clutter.

Right when you walk in, you can tell this home has presence. The eight panel solid wood door is framed with wood wrapped trim and flanked by tall privacy windows, plus that long accent window above that brings in light without putting your life on display. The slate detail at the entry handles wet shoes like a pro, then transitions into those rich maple floors that run through the main level. The space opens up to a full two story foyer with a clean, modern chandelier that keeps it feeling current. There’s room for a bench setup, which just makes everyday comings and goings easier. You’ve got quick access to the powder room, a hallway leading to the main floor suite, and a large under stair storage area that’s way more useful than expected.

This dining room shows up bright and ready, with oversized windows pulling in sunlight all day and those thick maple hardwood floors continuing to impress. The drum style chandelier keeps it current without being flashy, and the proportions here give you options. Set it up for dinners, holidays, and hosting, or pivot it into a den, library, or second living space if that fits your life better. The seller is also offering to leave the dining bench, which is one less thing to shop for and honestly a great anchor piece for the room.

From the front door, this is the view that pulls you straight into the heart of the home. The entry opens toward the family room, framed by slate capped half walls and those matching slate wrapped pillars that give the whole space a little architectural attitude. It’s a nice balance, you get separation from the entry without closing anything off. Those ledges are just asking for a few plants or a styled moment, so if you’re into decorating, here’s your stage. Off to the side, there’s another hallway closet near the main floor suite, because this floorplan takes storage seriously!

Standing here, you get the full picture of how this home lives day to day. The family room opens to the kitchen and breakfast nook, while the entry and staircase with lights, stay in view, along with that loft style hallway above that keeps the space feeling open. The island with seating anchors the kitchen side, making it easy to gather without crowding. What really stands out is the circular flow, you can move from the foyer through the main living area, into the kitchen and around to the dining or flex space, then right back to where you started. It keeps everything connected, but still gives each area its own purpose.

From here, the kitchen shows off its personality. The island pulls people in with casual seating, the slate floors add texture and durability, and the stainless appliances keep things current. The booth nook by the sliding door feels like a built in favorite spot, tucked right where the light comes in and close to the backyard for easy in and out. The corner sink with those two windows is one of those features you don’t realize you love until you have it, bright, open, and a little more interesting than the usual setup. Solid Cherrywood cabinets warm up the space, and everything flows naturally back into the living area.

This angle gives you the full working side of the kitchen. The island seating is right up front, perfect for casual meals or keeping the cook company, while the five burner cooktop and stainless hood bring a more serious, chef-ready feel. Across the way, the wall oven and microwave setup keeps everything streamlined and easy to use. The breakfast nook sits just beyond, with a clear view out the sliding glass door to the covered patio and even a peek at the gazebo out back. It all feels connected, easy to move through, and set up for both everyday routines and having people over.

Right off the eating nook, this covered deck pulls its weight all year long. There’s a skylight overhead bringing in natural light so it never feels closed in, even on those classic gray PNW days, and plenty of room out here for a dining table, lounge setup, and a grill station that doesn’t get rained out mid-dinner. It’s one of those spaces that quietly becomes part of your daily routine, coffee in the morning, dinner outside when you can, and a solid backup plan when the weather does its thing.

Comfy and classy covered gazebo perfect for your backyard dining table and back deck ready for spring and summertime entertaining.

Enjoy the warmth and comfort of this beautiful backyard. It is an extension of the home with the clean turf grass for playing on that is great for pets too, a gazebo for dining under, a covered deck that serves as a second living room and the uncovered deck with the luxurious swim-spa. What are you waiting for? This could be your backyard.

Call this your backyard VIP section. Parquet-style tile flooring sets the tone, the mounted TV stays for instant entertainment, and the bug netting lets you decide how open or cozy you want the space. There’s a ceiling fan to keep things breezy and lighting that carries you straight into evening without packing it in early. It’s set up for everything from quiet lounging to full-on hosting, no extra effort required.

This aerial with approximate lot lines makes it easy to see exactly what you own, and it’s a great piece of property. Tucked at the end with just a few custom homes, this one sits in a sweet little pocket where things feel a bit more relaxed. Here’s the fun part, no HOA dues and no rulebook hovering over your shoulder, yet the surrounding neighborhood still offers parks and playground spaces that you can enjoy. It’s kind of the best of both worlds, structure where you want it, freedom where you don’t.

This setup feels like your own private little resort moment. The swim spa is wrapped in Trex decking, so it looks sharp and holds up to real life, and it sits just off the main floor junior suite which makes late night dips or slow mornings ridiculously convenient. There’s plenty of room on the opposite side for outdoor seating, so you can actually hang out here, not just pass through. Add in extra space for storage and you’ve got a backyard zone that’s equal parts relaxing and practical.

From this view, you get a real sense of placement, how the home sits comfortably in its surroundings while still holding onto that tucked-away feel. Being at the end of a cul-de-sac adds a little extra calm to daily life, and the Olympia School District is a strong bonus with Margaret McKenny Elementary, Washington Middle School, Olympia High School, and Avanti High School all in the mix. It’s one of those details that quietly adds long-term value.

Right across the cul de sac, you’ve got Margaret McKenny Park, and this is not some tiny patch of grass pretending to be a park. It’s a full 4 acre City of Olympia park with trails, loops, basketball court, playground, swings, and picnic spots that actually get used. There’s a really cool backstory here too, Margaret McKenny helped save local watershed land from development back in the 1950s, so this space exists because someone fought for it. From the aerial you can see how close it is, yet the home still feels tucked in thanks to a buffer of evergreens. It’s that sweet spot of having something to do steps away, without it feeling like it’s in your backyard.

This is the vantage point that really shows off the drama. Looking down from the upstairs catwalk, you get the full effect of that soaring wall of windows and the gas fireplace holding court below. The terraced backyard peeks through all that glass, so even from up here you’re connected to the outdoors. It’s open, it’s bright, and it gives the whole home that “wow, this is a lot of space” feeling in the best way.

This main floor junior primary suite bedroom is pulling double duty, set up as a craft and office space right now, but with a full en suite bath it easily lives as a true guest suite or long term bedroom option. The sliding glass door brings in great light and gives direct access to the backyard and 18’ swim spa, framed by those wood wrapped details that carry throughout the home. Underfoot, the hand scraped maple floors add warmth and a little personality, paired with neutral tones that keep it easy to work with. For multigenerational living, guests who stay awhile, or just planning ahead, this is one of those spaces that quietly makes the whole house more functional.

This en suite bathroom is doing exactly what you want it to do, spacious, practical, and quietly polished. The extra long vanity with granite counters gives you plenty of room to spread out, with an undermount sink and brushed nickel fixtures keeping the look clean and classic. Tile floors handle real life with ease, and the glass door tub and shower combo keeps things feeling a little more elevated than your standard setup. The wood wrapped window brings in natural light, and those 9 foot ceilings give the whole space a bit more breathing room. Warm, neutral tones tie it all together in a way that will age well and work with just about any style.

This primary keeps it calm and easy, with a big picture window pulling in soft light and that neutral latte tone carpet fresh and ready for whatever direction you take it. At roughly 12’ x 16’ , there’s plenty of room for a king setup plus nightstands, reading chair, or even a little lounge moment or another remote working zone if needed.

This view connects all the dots, entry door, en suite, and the overall layout of the room. What really stands out is the location, set apart from the rest of the bedrooms and away from the bonus room, so it gets that added layer of privacy people always hope for. It feels intentional, like this wing of the house was designed to be your own little retreat.

This primary bath knows exactly what it’s doing. Tile floors ground the space, while the granite counters and those raised vessel sinks bring a little drama in the best way. Two sinks, so no one’s elbowing for space, a separate toilet water closet for privacy, and a layout that just flows right when you’re getting ready.

Now we’re getting into full spa territory. The walk-in tile shower is clean and easy, and right next to it the jetted tub is basically calling your name after a long day. That big window above the tub brings in great light, and the top down bottom up blinds let you dial in privacy exactly how you want it.

A walk-in closet that actually lives up to the name. Those high-set windows let the light pour in while keeping things private, and they free up the walls for all the custom built-ins that make staying organized feel a little less like a chore. There’s space to spread out, room to see everything at a glance, and enough structure here to keep it looking pulled together even on a busy morning.

Not your average extra bedroom. This one comes in at a generous size and includes a French door closet with custom built-ins that feel more boutique than basic. There’s a sleek fan and light combo overhead. Add a bunk bed, like this room has, and turn this into a ready-made guest or kid zone. Neutral tones keep things flexible, and the freshly cleaned carpet means it’s already feeling refreshed and ready for whatever you’ve got planned.

This upstairs office keeps things simple and super usable. About 11’x11’9”, it’s a legit room, not an afterthought, and easily flexes into a 4th bedroom if that’s on your list. The French door closet with built-ins keeps storage dialed in, and the wood wrapped windows bring in that warm detail you see throughout the home. Soft neutral tones make it easy to picture desks, beds, or both, depending on how your life is set up right now.

This is the kind of upstairs bathroom that just makes life easier. Long granite counter, plenty of space for everyone’s stuff, and an undermount sink that keeps things looking tidy. Tub and shower combo for flexibility, and it’s perfectly placed to serve both the 3rd bedroom and the office or 4th bedroom. It’s living well in a shared bathroom that actually works.

Big bonus rooms can be underwhelming, this one actually delivers. Around 26’ x 18’ and currently pulling triple duty with a gymnastics zone, gaming and TV area, and even space for a full band setup. It’s a great visual of how much this room can flex. The carpet’s been freshly cleaned, it feels ready to go, and if you’re thinking long term, this could easily become a 5th bedroom, home theater, or studio-style living space for a multigenerational vibe.

Zoomed in on the action zone, you’ve got a legit TV lounge paired with space for music, gaming, or whatever hobby takes over next. The oversized windows keep it bright all day, and the extra accent windows add a little architectural interest that makes the room feel more custom than cookie cutter. Wood wrapped trim ties it back to the rest of the house, and with 3200 square feet overall, it’s clear this home didn’t skip on giving you room to actually live.

This upstairs powder room is right where you want it, just off the bonus room so guests and game nights stay contained without anyone wandering the house. Eco friendly dual flush toilet, a clean vanity setup, and a beveled round mirror that adds a little polish without overdoing it.

This garage is playing a little trick in the best way, the door says two car, but inside you’ve got room for three if you want to make it work. Tall ceilings open things up, and the big window brings in actual daylight so you’re not fumbling around in a cave. The tile flooring stays, which is a nice upgrade from bare concrete, and those overhead hanging shelves are already in place for all the stuff that somehow multiplies over time. Storage, projects, parking, it’s all covered here.

This is the kind of laundry room that makes everyday routines feel a little more organized. It’s on the main floor, spacious, well laid out, and gives you room to actually work. The long granite counter stretch all the way to the machines and there is even a solid surface on top creating the perfect folding, sorting, or staging laundry baskets area. The washer and dryer stay and already have a countertop insert in place, which just makes life easier. An undermount sink adds flexibility, while upper cabinetry and that hanging rod keep things functional. Tile floors handle the wear and tear, and being right off the garage, it doubles as a smart drop zone that keeps the rest of the house a little more put together.

This floor plan just makes sense the second you look at it. The main level has that easy circular flow where you can move from room to room without hitting dead ends, which sounds small until you live it and realize how much smoother everything feels. The main floor junior suite is a standout, perfect for guests who get the good room or for anyone who would rather skip the stairs long term. Upstairs is dialed in with a smart split between the primary suite and the other bedrooms plus the bonus room, so everyone gets their own space. That bonus room sitting over the garage helps keep noise where it belongs, and the overall room sizes feel generous across the board. Add in all the built-in storage and you start to see how thoughtfully this home was put together.

What a stunning entry. The doors show a 2-car garage but in reality, three cars or massive storage definitely fit. The exterior has been recently refreshed 2 years ago with paint and a professional roof soft wash, so you don't need to worry about do it. It has already been done. Quality 1-owner home that has been meticulously maintained.
