907 W Connecticut St, Bellingham, WA 98225

Not one but TWO houses on this Urban Homestead lot. The main house is a two bedroom one bath, 750 sqft classic Bellingham bungalow. This house has been completely remodeled since it was last purchased in 2008. The original wood floors were refinished and ebonized (see pictures). Rather than opting for a generic wood or gas insert a small cast iron wood stove fits inside the existing fireplace. The stove not only adds a ton of character to the living space but allows you to cook or make tea on the built in cooking hob. Even with a power outage you will have the ability to cook and heat the house. Plumbing has been installed from the fire place to the water heater allowing the wood stove to also provide hotwater (this has not been hooked up). . The bathroom was completely gutted to studs. New cast iron tub, classic white subway tile shower surround and wainscoting, porcelain floor tiles, a bright skylight and inline exhaust fan make this room top notch. The existing pedestal sink, a vintage medicine cabinet vanity and light help to keep the charm. The existing fireplace brick was also exposed in this room. . The laundry room was renovated in 2012. This provides laundry directly off the main house but has dedicated exterior entrance for centrally located shared laundry between the two houses. . The exterior the house is original cedar beveled siding which is in decent shape and will last many decades. The roof is corrugated metal panels. . The mother and law is 600 sqft and is a completely detached one bedroom one bath, with a large living room/ kitchen great room. The kitchen has a LARGE pantry which can be used as additional storage. The living room has 3 skylights, a sliding glass door to the garden and a gas fireplace that heats the entire house. The bathroom has a HUGE bath tub with tile shower surround, tile floors and a skylight. The bedroom is also HUGE and has a decent sized closet. There is also a built-in laundry closet. This house is much newer than the main house. It is extremely efficient and well insulated. Currently it is rented for $775 a month but could be rented for as much as $850 a month.
