About this home

MLS# 294935 When the world's full of AI data centers and diarrhea lettuce… where can you escape? Right here. This place. The Nest. Buy a house. Plant tomatoes.The Nest has a huge backyard where you can start a fruit orchard, build raised garden beds, and grow enough vegetables to accidentally qualify for farm subsidies.  The yard is so big that one day your hardest choice will be whether you should pick a peach, an apple, or an apricot. And if you're growing your own lettuce, at least you'll know exactly where it's been.Back inside, the kitchen, dining room, and family room feel like one big room. Throw a TV in the family room and, whether you're watching the game, the news, or the collapse of modern civilization, the designated cook is never exiled from the fun. If you run out of things to grow outside…Both the front room and family room get amazing natural light. Put a pothos in here and six months later you'll be standing in the corner screaming: "IS THIS JUMANJI?!" The Nest naturally divides itself into two halves. One side is where everyone hangs out. Kitchen. Dining room. Family room. Bathroom. Patio. The other side? Three bedrooms and another bathroom. So if you're hosting a party, there's a whole separate wing where the kids can pass out in peace. (Or you.) Out back is a covered patio where everyone can gather and party, or if that’s not your scene:You. Solo. Reading a book while it rains. It’s attached to the first shed, which has a ton of storage. And then there's the second shed. With a cute little window, it feels less like storage and more like the beginning of a new hobby. Art studio? Workshop? Chicken coop? (I checked with the city; you’re allowed 3 hens, no rooster). If you have stuff, WELL, this place was designed for stuff. Front room? Closet. Hallway? Closet. Living room? Closet. Three bedrooms? Three closets. Kitchen cabinets are so deep they feel like closets (or portals to another dimension.) I swear this house grows a new closet every time you leave. The Nest is central to everything; the highway, the river, the boat races, shopping. And when the 4th of July happens, pull out your lawn chairs, ‘cause this is the best seat in town. You'll see every firework in Tri-Cities. If the idea of growing your own food, throwing backyard parties, tinkering in the shed, and  Fourth of July in your front yard sounds like a pretty good life… and the rest of the world is acting foolish? Buy a house. Plant tomatoes. Welcome to To The Nest
