I regularly preview homes to keep myself informed on the residential real estate inventory in the Vancouver Washington area and as I mentioned in other blogs, I am seeing some very good buys! So here is my good buy of the week.

This home is located in the Heights Neighborhood. This is how the Heights Neighborhood is described on the City of Vancouver's website on the its Communty section page:
"The Vancouver Heights Neighborhood, located in the south central portion of the city, feels like a comfortable “home town” within a big city. As a microcosm of the larger community, it includes over 1600 residences, 45 businesses, public facilities, and open spaces. Vancouver Heights was voted as the Neighborhood of the 150th in 2007 in a contest where residents voted on neighborhood association entries printed in The Columbian as part of Vancouver's 150th celebration."
The average price of a home in the Heights Neighborhood is $258,086 and the average year built for this neighborhood is 1977.
My pick for the week is priced at $199,900. MLS# 8101330
The lot size is almost a quarter of an acre, 0.21 acres which gives you space for a garden; gives you space for children to play; and you are not looking directly into your neighbor's home or feel like you are part of their summer barbeque. A yard meant to be enjoyed! Another plus is that it is located right across the street from a park.
This 3 bedromm, 1.5 bath 1028 sq. ft. well maintained home has
-three sided fireplace between living room and kitchen, warmth that can be shared and viewed from multiple areas
-hardwood floors, a popular feature you will love
-forced air gas heat, gives you great comfort
-large 2 car garage and a tool shed, storeage place for your projects
This home has been cherished for years and is looking to be cherished in the future!
