About This Home

Welcome to LAKESIDE, where woods meet gardens & Lake Samish. South-facing double lot waterfront home, designed by Architect Jeff McClure, built by Emerald Builders. The ultimate lakeside living: intimate family areas, generous entertainment spaces & a gym. Enjoy the sun on the expansive main level lake-view deck, or drift to the lakeside deck & dock with boat lift; outdoor shower to rinse off. Savor the sunset from your hot tub after dinner al fresco with wine from your wine cellar. Sleep lakeside in a platform tent: dim the chandelier & stargaze, while houseguests retreat to the guesthouse. In cooler months, abundant windows with stunning lake views framed by nature merge the outdoors with warm interiors, lit by a wood-burning fireplace.
