About This Home

As of October 2020

Handsomely crafted, beautifully maintained cabin with fantastic views and gorgeous sandy community beach. The light-filled timber-frame interior reflects loving care and attention to detail. Very private, open plan has lots of custom touches throughout and expansive decks for alfresco living. Stroll on the beach for hours, play soccer on the community field, enjoy the magic--the perfect getaway in a small, secluded waterfront community on Vashon's most-desired west side. One of a kind!
