About This Home
As of November 2023Welcome to the Arboretum! Sequoia, Douglas Fir, Japanese Maple and Autumn Blaze trees all grace this gorgeous double lot in the heart of Bellingham. The owners, one of whom is a professional arborist, also enjoy an abundant harvest of Rainier Cherry and Beauty Plum trees and blueberry bushes. A brand new legal studio overlooks the organic garden bed and can serve as art studio, yoga room, garden shed or reading nook. The home itself is a true turn of the century Craftsmen built of old growth tight-grain Douglas Fir with cedar siding and will stand the test of time. A 5 minute walk will find you at the famous Stone Bridge over Whatcom Falls, 5 minute bike ride to Galbraith mountain bike trails and a 5 minute drive to beautiful Lake Whatcom.
