Classic 1923 South Hill home with Nantucket charm and partial bay views that's as welcoming as it is timeless. This cared for home has been in the same ownership for over 55 years and is located in one of Bellingham’s most sought-after neighborhoods. It features 3 bedrooms, 3 baths with nearly 2,200 square feet of character and is flooded with South and West facing natural light. The living room flows seamlessly into a sun-filled sunroom wrapped in windows, creating a bright, inviting space to relax or entertain. Off the dining room double doors lead to a charming nook framed by large windows, perfect for a café table, home office or reading corner. The kitchen features hardwood floors with easy access to a cozy tiled back patio. A comfortable family room anchored by a brick fireplace provides a retreat at the end of the day, while the adjacent laundry room includes a built-in desk area for added functionality. Upstairs, all three bedrooms are thoughtfully placed, along with a full bath and an additional half bath. Outside, a large, covered porch wraps around and connects to a patio with a picturesque trellis that's surrounded by mature landscaping offering privacy and year-round beauty. This is South Hill living at its best, walkable to Fairhaven, and close to everything that makes Bellingham feel like home.
