Why Is This Renton Rambler $1.5M? Take A Look Around Back

RENTON, WA - From the outside, this doesn't quite look like a $1.5 million home. It looks like your typical 1950s Puget Sound rambler. Nice, but is it $1.5 million nice?

In any other situation, probably not. What you're buying here is the land. The home sits on an unheard-of five acres, with a drop-dead gorgeous view of Mount Rainier. The land is so heavily the focus of this property that the listing on Realtor.com doesn't even include pictures of the interior of the house. Heck, you could live in a tent on this property and be happy.
