Seattleites may like to think that our city outshines Tacoma. But you know what the south sound has done much better than us? Preserve old and historic homes.
Tacoma’s iconic Rust mansion has hit the market and is a prime example of some of the Sound’s best nearly 1900s architecture.
The Rust mansion located on N I Street was built in 1905 and was designed by Ambrose Russell. Built in the neoclassical style the home spares no details and maintains much of its original grandeur to this day.
With 7 bedrooms, 4 full and 2 partial bathrooms the home is large. Its 11,000 square feet are spread throughout 4 elevatored floors.

The main floor provides wide open living spaces, dual offices, a wood clad dining room and kitchen. The lower level ballroom has a billiards room, as well as a stage and access to outdoor spaces. The primary suite has an attached bath as well as sitting rooms. On the very upper level you’ll find four bedrooms, two baths and a flex space.
The home is currently listed with Gateway Real Estate for $4.955 million. Which yes is expensive, but when you think about how many Seattle homes are listed for the same, if not higher prices with less amenities, it makes the Tacoma Rust Mansion even more attractive.
