Some homes give you a great backyard. This one gives you a park for a neighbor. Tucked onto a quiet cul-de-sac, this well cared for home offers something increasingly hard to find: privacy, peace, and a little breathing room, with open park space directly behind the property. It feels wonderfully removed from the hustle, yet you're still close to everything Kirkland has to offer.Inside, the comfortable layout is designed for real life, with warm hardwood floors, an inviting living space, and an oversized kitchen with island that gives you plenty of room to cook, gather, and enjoy everyday life together. Air conditioning keeps summer comfortable, while the garage's electric car charger is ready for your next road trip, or Tuesday commute.And then there's the backyard. Fully fenced and ready to be enjoyed, it's part garden, part retreat, and already growing something delicious. A mature vegetable garden and established fruit trees mean you can skip the waiting-for-it-to-grow phase and get right to harvesting. Add a peaceful park backdrop and you've got a pretty compelling argument for spending more time outside.Close to parks, shopping at Totem Lake Village, dining, Evergreen Hospital and I405 freeway, this is the kind of home that proves you don't have to choose between privacy and convenience. Sometimes you really can have both.
