Featuring an incredible main floor great room designed with entertaining in mind, this home shows off magazine-worthy style at every turn. “…What I loved about the house the most was the open-concept kitchen and living room,” shares current owner Brendan Mason. “It is the perfect home to host parties at, as everyone can feel connected being on the same level and the party easily spills into the backyard once you open the French doors wide. …I’ve also fallen more and more in love with the kitchen. There is counter space galore and more outlets than you can shake a stick at. It makes it easy for 2 to 3 people to prepare multiple dishes in the kitchen for parties.”
The kitchen is certainly a noteworthy highlight—featuring ample cabinet and counter space, the kitchen is replete with modern finishes and plenty of space for whipping up elaborate meals. The open layout looks out onto the expansive dining area and living room, a light-filled space with rich flooring and a cozy, brick-accented fireplace.
Even more living space awaits on the lower level, where you’ll find a family room in addition to 2 bedrooms. This beautifully finished haven also features a brick-accented fireplace, and tons of versatile space. Whether you envision an entertainment and recreation center or a hobby/office area, the downstairs truly has room for it all!
“…There is no wasted space in the layout of the home,” Brendan adds. “4 bedrooms are stacked on top of each other (2 on each floor), and they are connected by the living room and kitchen on the main floor and a great room on the lower floor. Most homes have poor designs which require hallways to get you from room to room and that is square footage you are having to pay for, that you’d rather not. This home is a big 2,200 square feet.”
In addition to its generous layout, this home offers some unique features that are not to miss out on: “The previous owner spent a lot of time modernizing the home and it makes a big difference,” shares Brendan. “There is a Local Area Network in the house with a switchboard in the basement. For the layman, that means there is wired internet connections all over the house and at every cable outlet. For your connected devices, like Apple TV, video game consoles, and smart TVs, you can plug them in and never have to worry about your wireless being spotty. …There are motion sensor running lights for the stairs down to the lower level that are great at night. Also, the tankless water heater is the best. It’s hard to explain, but once you’ve had endless amounts of hot water, you’ll have a tough time remembering how you lived without it.”
This home’s premium amenities just continue out into the backyard. French doors open to the covered back patio and outdoor oasis, the ideal scene for quiet relaxation or hosting a crowd. Whether you dream of hosting lively barbecues complete with lawn games or simply dream of having enough space to grow your own fruits and veggies, this home’s outdoor setting has room for it all! Plus, a pass-through garage offers plenty of off-street parking.

Living in Tacoma’s Narrows Neighborhood
At 1126 Bridgeview Dr Tacoma, WA 98406, you’re situated in a prime Tacoma location! “I work in Gig Harbor and also make the drive up to Seattle on average about once a week, so I wanted to have quick and convenient freeway access,” says current homeowner Brendan Mason. For those who commute, the 2-minute drive to Highway 16 is definitely a perk.
Brendan also loves the nearby amenities in the neighborhood: “Optimist Park is a short walk away and it features a basketball court, baseball diamond and a large playground. On Sundays, you’ll catch a big group playing soccer on the large grass field. When friends come and visit, I like to take them over the skybridge to Pao’s Donuts. You get a great view of the Narrows Bridge and an old-fashioned donut that can’t be beat. (I also love the apple fritters.)”
The neighborhood itself is another reason why Brendan has loved living here: “The neighbors are all very friendly and the neighborhood has a great multi-generational mix. In the mornings, you’ll see many couples in their golden years strolling past, and in the evenings, you’ll see young families with their children riding on all matters of bikes, big wheels, and scooters.”
