In real estate, there are homes that merely provide shelter. And there are homes that quietly improve the way you live. This Lake Meridian residence belongs firmly in the latter category. Set on a landscaped, level lot in one of Kent's most established neighborhoods-with no HOA-it offers something increasingly rare: space, privacy, and genuine livability. Mature trees and flowering shrubs create a sense of calm from the moment you arrive, while the fully fenced backyard, expansive decks, and covered patio were designed for entertaining, gardening, and peaceful evenings outdoors. Inside, sunlight fills the open-concept floorplan, highlighting beautiful vinyl plank flooring, updated lighting, and a dramatic floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace. The kitchen pairs style with function, featuring custom cabinetry, Cambria quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, full-height backsplash, and a center island that naturally becomes the heart of the home. Upstairs are three comfortable bedrooms and two updated baths, including a primary suite with private deck access. The lower level offers a spacious recreation room with a second fireplace and half bath for added flexibility. Walkable to Kent's beloved Soos Creek Trail and less than five minutes from Trader Joe's and Costco, the location balances convenience with tranquility. Quiet wide streets, abundant off-road parking, boat and small RV parking, buildable ADU potential w/ huge side access to backyard.
