About This Home

For nearly 20 years, the Smith & Vallee Gallery has anchored Edison's vibrant arts scene in a charming schoolhouse, originally built in 1900. The 1600 sf commercial space has hosted hundreds of acclaimed exhibits and events. The building also features a thoughtfully designed 1600 sf 2BD home, this waterfront gem retains historic charm: the cozy residence blends original wood floors, sunlit rooms, and curated Northwest art with modern comforts (all existing furniture conveys). Expansive slough-front yard, detached garden house, covered deck, and privacy fence—ideal for small gatherings, events and serene escapes. Launch from the private dock to saltwater and San Juan Islands. A rare live-work opportunity in Skagit Valley's creative heart.
