Welcome to this classic two bedroom craftsman in South Tacoma. This home needs some TLC and updates, so you could renovate first or move in and start making repairs as you live here. There is a gas furnace in the attic, and the home has air conditioning so the hot months will be comfortable. The rear deck overlooks a fully fenced backyard and a 2 car detached garage. The location is convenient to schools, shopping, public transportation, highways, and of course JBLM.
