At first glance, 1447 Cherry Avenue offers everything many buyers hope to find in Fircrest: a spacious layout, flexible living areas, a fenced outdoor space, and a convenient location in The Commons at Fircrest. But one feature makes this property especially memorable—an oversized garage that is anything but ordinary.
With approximately 800 square feet, two separate bay doors, and durable epoxy flooring, this garage offers room to think beyond parking. It could accommodate a workshop, home gym, hobby area, recreational equipment, or organized storage while still leaving space for vehicles. In an area where garage space can be limited, this is a feature buyers will want to see for themselves.
An Open Main Level Designed for Everyday Living
Inside, the 2,004-square-foot home offers four bedrooms and two-and-a-half bathrooms. The open-concept main floor creates an easy connection between the kitchen, dining area, and living room, making the space comfortable for both daily routines and entertaining.
The kitchen provides generous cabinet and counter space, stainless steel appliances, a double sink, and a raised breakfast-bar island. The island adds a practical place for casual meals, morning coffee, or conversation while preparing dinner.
Just beyond the kitchen, the living area features a gas fireplace with a mantel, built-in media shelving, recessed lighting, and access to an upper deck. Large windows bring in natural light, while the fireplace creates a welcoming focal point during the cooler Pacific Northwest months.
A flexible bonus area offers even more possibilities. Depending on your needs, it could serve as a media room, home office, game area, reading space, or secondary sitting room.
Four Bedrooms and a Comfortable Primary Suite
Upstairs, the spacious primary suite includes a walk-in closet and a five-piece ensuite bathroom. The bath features a soaking tub, separate shower, and ample cabinetry, creating a private and functional retreat.
Three additional bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a flexible loft or office nook complete the upper level. The layout provides options for guests, remote work, hobbies, or additional household needs without sacrificing the main living areas.
Outdoor Space with Added Privacy
The home includes an upper deck, lower patio, and fully fenced backyard with lawn and low-maintenance landscaping. The greenbelt setting behind the property adds a sense of privacy and provides a pleasant natural backdrop.
There is space for outdoor seating, container gardening, or simply enjoying fresh air at home. With no residence immediately behind the yard, the outdoor area feels more peaceful and tucked away.
A Convenient Fircrest Location
Located in The Commons at Fircrest, the home is within the University Place School District and is positioned near Whittier Elementary, Wainwright Intermediate, and Curtis Senior High School. It also offers convenient access to Chambers Bay, University Place shopping and dining, Tacoma, and Joint Base Lewis-McChord.
Fircrest is known for its central location and established community feel, and this property adds something difficult to find: a four-bedroom home with flexible living space and a garage large enough to support a wide range of interests and storage needs.
The Feature You Have to See in Person
The oversized garage may be the headline, but the full property tells an even better story. From the open main level and flexible bonus spaces to the private primary suite and greenbelt-backed yard, 1447 Cherry Avenue offers room to live, work, create, and store more comfortably.
