8032 southwest hawthorne lane

A rare Vashon waterfront opportunity with sweeping east-facing views across the East Passage—where ferries, cargo ships, fishing boats, and passing orcas animate the horizon. Eagles soar overhead, seabirds gather along the shore, and beachcombing and birdwatching unfold just steps from the home. With 50 feet of low-bank beachfront on Hawthorne Lane, this property offers exceptional privacy, tranquility, and a front-row seat to Puget Sound’s ever-changing scenery. The existing 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom home presents a substantial renovation or reimagination opportunity, ideal for a buyer ready to undertake a transformative project. Pre-inspection, approved new septic design, completed survey, and boundary line adjustments provide valuable groundwork for moving forward with confidence. The current structure features an open-concept layout, walls of windows oriented to the views, a pellet stove, and an unfinished 240 sq ft workshop or studio beneath the deck—also with waterfront outlooks and ready for reinvention. Just minutes to town and the ferry, this is a compelling chance to create a custom waterfront retreat in one of Vashon’s most scenic and dynamic shoreline settings—where vision, craftsmanship, and setting come together to shape something truly special.
