About This Home

As of February 2023

Great opportunity to have such a clean and cheery home on a secluded acreage so close to Bellingham and Lake Whatcom. 3 bedroom with the primary bedroom on the 1st floor having its own exterior door to the wrap around deck. Windows galore and several exits to the deck such as the dining room, mud room, front and primary doors. Very functional wood stove in the living room has kept the entire home warm keeping utility bills to a minimum. Over-sized 3 bay shop (water stubbed in, 220V, etc.) with larger door for your RV plus 40 foot length for your multi-cars and storage. Partially finished bonus room above the shop. Structures have been well maintained with newer roof(s), appliances, flooring, paint and ready to move in with no work needed.
