The story
Tucked above Lake Whatcom on nearly 3 acres, this custom lodge-style home is one of those rare properties where the setting does the talking. A rolling meadow, wooded ravine with a seasonal creek, fruit trees, and a large fenced yard, ideal for pets, give it a genuine sense of privacy and space that's hard to find this close to town, with light, low-traffic road access and no immediate neighbors crowding the view — yet you're just minutes from everything Bellingham has to offer. With 3 beds, 2.5 baths, an office, + bonus room above the garage & shop, this home offers real room to spread out. It's solid and exceptionally well-built, with the kind of craftsmanship — exposed beams, fir plank ceilings, vaulted spaces, two fireplaces — that simply isn't replicated today. Fresh interior & exterior paint, new carpet, & new appliances give it a clean, move-in ready feel, with genuine opportunity to add your own finishes and make it fully your own. And the roof is only 3 yrs old. The 24x24 two-story outbuilding is a standout feature — complete with a 1/2 bath, loft, sink, and cabinetry, it's as well-constructed as the home itself. It's equally suited as a shop, studio, or serious hobby space. Add the roll-out awning, generous parking and you have an entertainer's setup that most properties simply can't touch. On a quiet dead-end street, with high-end neighbors nearby — this is the kind of place people stop looking once they find it. No HOA! Showings by appointment only.
