FROM THE SELLER

When asked what they’ll miss most about living in this home – “The friendly neighbors. Being friendly and close to my neighbors gave us a great sense of community, safety and security. Close to everything! Gas, Starbucks, Winco, Fred Meyer, Applebees, Famous Dave’s, Subway, nail salons, oil changes. Straight shot to everything – Pacific Ave, 72nd St, 84th St, 56th St, Yakima Ave, Park Ave, freeway entrance. Wapato Park – my running/walking stomping grounds. Having a master bathroom, especially a master bath with a separate toilet room. We know our neighbors names and have their phone numbers, they are a phone call away. It’s great.”

“And when dining out near the home, this is where they’d go – Famous Dave’s – family feast to go.. Pho Ever – best pho…open until 4am, happy hour at Famous Dave’s or Applebees. Little Tokyo any fried rice item. About $9 but one order can feed 2 to 3 people. Call ahead (about 45 min before), they are popular and very very busy.”
