13113 NW 8TH AVE #A, Vancouver, WA, 98685 · SALMON CREEK ESTATES

In a quiet little corner of Salmon Creek, this ground-level home feels like its own retreat—simple, calm, and surprisingly full of charm. The kitchen has been thoughtfully updated with newer and additional cabinetry, a butcher-block island, and stainless appliances that stay with the home. The true brick, wood-burning fireplace brings an old-school coziness you rarely find anymore, giving the great-room layout a warm focal point. Slide open the patio door and you get an unexpected bonus: a private outdoor living space wrapped in greenery. It’s the kind of patio that actually gets used—morning coffee, evening unwinding, a few pots of herbs or flowers, whatever fits your rhythm. The home has an updated mini-split for AC and extra heat & a solar tube for added natural light. The HOA keeps life easy with a well-maintained really big swimming pool, tennis/pickleball courts, a recreation center, all the landscaping, plus water and sewer included. It’s genuinely low-maintenance living without giving up amenities. And the location is ideal; less than a mile to Fred Meyer & Trader Joes and Legacy, minutes to both I-5 and I-205, and Vancouver schools literally across the street. Everything you need is close, but the home still feels tucked away and private.
