718 42nd Ave NW in Gig Harbor

Last updated in 1998. The view never needed one. From the end of Point Fosdick, this home looks across Puget Sound to Fox Island, Cromwell and the Olympic Mountains. The 0.9 acre lot and dead-end privacy are the parts you can't add later. Outside: a heated in-ground pool facing the water and a back deck with a fireplace. The kitchen and baths still think it's 1998, and they're yours to redo your way. The unglamorous work is done: fresh interior paint throughout, new drain field, new well pump, whole-house generator and a new primary bath window. Natural gas runs the furnace, pool heater, water heater, dryer, deck fireplace and generator. Cooking is Miele induction, with the gas line still in place if you prefer a flame. Main floor: real oak hardwood floors, cedar-lined closets, a living room with a picture window and brick fireplace, three bedrooms, and a primary that opens to the pool deck. Laundry sits in the 3/4 bath off the kitchen. A finished breezeway with stained glass panels links the house to the 3-car garage and has served as an office. The finished basement has a large rec room, half bath, sauna and a separate room lined with built-ins. A separate studio with a potbelly wood stove and composting toilet works as an office, gym or shop. Quiet and private, yet minutes from Hwy 16, the Narrows Bridge, Uptown Gig Harbor, Madrona Links Golf Course, Narrows Park and the downtown waterfront. RV parking, fruit trees, garden space and two 500-gallon rain barrels, too.
