Nestled in Lakewood this turn key 3 bedroom / 1.75 bathroom rambler sits on a fully landscaped, private lot. Just blocks from Steilacoom Lake and about a mile from Fort Steilacoom Park there is a plethora of outdoor options to enjoy within your neighborhood! Drop a fishing line off the Interlaaken Dr bridge and perhaps you'll enjoy a fresh catch of stoked Rainbow Trout to bring home for dinner! Or drop your boat at the Edgewater Park boat launch and take a cruise around the lake.
