Rare opportunity to own a well-maintained duplex in the highly desirable Lake Tapps area, tucked away on a quiet dead-end street surrounded by mature trees and a peaceful neighborhood setting. Purchased from builder by sellers in 2003, this property has been an exceptional long-term investment with strong appreciation, reliable tenants, and steadily increasing rental income. Each spacious unit offers nearly 1400 sq ft with 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, full-size laundry, large primary suites with walk-in closets, private decks, backyards, and oversized 2-car garages, a combination that has made tenant retention remarkably strong. Current tenant in Unit 1 has been extremely reliable and would like to stay. The previous tenant in Unit 2 remained for 9 years. Unit 2 has recently been refreshed with new interior paint, new laminate flooring throughout the main level, new front-load washer and dryer, new water heater, and new range. Unit 2 also features granite countertops, while Unit 1 offers laminate flooring in the kitchen and dining areas. Entire building received a new roof and gutters in 2026. Neighborhood membership includes access to coveted Church Lake Park on Lake Tapps with private picnic areas, playground, + boat launch access, a rare amenity in an area with limited public lake access. Opportunity for either an investor seeking strong rental appeal and upside potential, or an owner-occupant looking to offset mortgage costs with built-in rental income.
