Located just two blocks from Whitman College and an easy walk through campus to downtown Walla Walla’s wine tasting rooms, restaurants, and shops, this charming 1926 English Storybook Cottage offers one of the most desirable and walkable locations in town.
Ideal for Whitman College visits including graduation, Family Weekend, and Admitted Students Weekend, as well as wine country getaways, the home blends historic character, modern comfort, and a beautiful private garden retreat.
The home offers approximately 2,700 square feet of living space and sleeps six adults comfortably across four bedrooms and three bathrooms, making it perfect for families, multiple couples, or small groups. The large remodeled kitchen is a true gathering space, featuring a large island, generous counter space, and two dishwashers, ideal for preparing meals together after a day of wine tasting or campus activities. The cozy living room features a fireplace and a large flat-screen TV, creating a warm and inviting place to relax.
On the main level you’ll find two comfortable bedrooms, one with a king adjustable bed and one with a queen adjustable bed, along with a beautifully remodeled bathroom featuring quartz and travertine finishes.

Mature landscaping surrounds a copper bowl fountain, a gentle waterfall, and multiple seating areas. The brick patio seats eight for outdoor dining, and the extended patio with a gas fire pit is perfect for enjoying a glass of local wine in the evening. A playset is also available for children.
