Colonial charm and breathtaking views

501 LAUREL DRIVE, EVERETT | $1,650,000

A home full of charm and character with stunning views is now available for the right homeowner.

This 1908 Southern Colonial home with 5,173 square feet of living space could be the perfect space for someone looking for a fully modernized home that has preserved its original architectural details, original oak flooring and millwork. This home has five bedrooms and 3.75 bathrooms, and a lower level property that ensures your views will never be obstructed. The layout of this home is fabulous for entertaining, both inside and out.

Stepping inside, you’ll see that the formal living room and dining room surround the impressive foyer, and the open floor plan makes this a fabulous space for entertaining. The kitchen and living room lead to the large deck that overlooks a lower back yard space. There’s a powder room on the first floor and on the basement level. The basement could be transformed into spaces that could be used in a variety of different ways, thanks to its great storage. You could turn it into a game room, a wine cellar, or another space. There are two more levels upstairs, and that’s where the five bedrooms and three of the bathrooms are located. The master suite features a fireplace, and an ensuite bathroom.

Since the home was built in the early 1900s, there have been just two owners, and in 1991, the home was modernized, with the owners taking care to preserve the original architecture and historical charm. Many of the bedrooms feature windows and gorgeous shutters that open inward to allow more light in.

Park in the attached two car garage, and enjoy the fabulous views from the expansive deck – you can see Puget Sound from the Olympic Mountains to the Cascades. The carefully-cared for, lush landscaping in the back of the home and trees in the front give this home a calm, private air. The back deck outside is a fantastic place to relax and watch boats on the water, or for spring and summer entertaining. A covered porch space in the front might be a great place to settle in and read, or have coffee or tea with a friend. Covered space along the side and toward the back of the home is a fantastic place to relax and watch the water, or spend time with visitors.
