Set along the quiet shoreline of Hood Canal "The Boathouse" is a rare waterfront legacy property where history, craftsmanship, and setting converge. This remarkable residence has evolved over more than a century, preserving its original character while thoughtfully adapting for modern living in a way that feels authentic. Rich in character and craftsmanship, the residence has been expanded and refined to support today’s lifestyle while maintaining a strong connection to its origins. Spanning more than 4,800 square feet, the home includes generous gathering spaces to include a wood shop, a multi-purpose room, and well-equipped private guest suite. Every room is oriented toward the water with expansive views that stretch across Hood Canal to the Olympic Mountains. Shifting light, passing wildlife, and ever-changing tides create a living backdrop throughout the day. The setting is private, peaceful, and deeply connected to the natural landscape. The waterfront experience is exceptional. A private dock with deep-water moorage provides convenient access to boating, fishing, and exploring the canal, while the shoreline is home to productive oyster beds that celebrate the region’s rich marine environment. Whether launching a boat, whale watching, harvesting oysters, clams or crabs, or enjoying the rhythm of the tides from the dock, the property offers a rare level of connection to the water.
