1082 Carlsborg Rd, Sequim, WA 98382

A PROPERTY LIKE THIS COMES ON THE MARKET ONCE IN A GREAT WHILE! A mile west of the Sequim city limits lies the old mill town of Carlsborg, which owes its existence to a lumber mill opened in 1915, closed in the late 1960’s, and of which no trace remains apart from the small row of old commercial buildings and mill workers’ cottages fronting on Carlsborg and Runnion roads. This unincorporated town is the location of West Wind Manor, a lovely, late-Victorian farmhouse, built in 1918 and nestled on a fully landscaped, shy acre. If charm is what you’re looking for, this place ticks all the boxes: steeply pitched rooflines, knee braces, six-over-one windows and a slight asymmetry lending interest without distraction. During its lifetime, this home has been held and cherished by succeeding owners for lengthy periods of time. The current offering is only the 2nd time the property has been marketed since 1979, and as such, the home is mercifully free of the types of unfortunate remodels from the 1970’s and 1980’s that we see in so many of our historic Sequim homes. West Wind Manor still proudly features its sweeping, partially open staircase, wood-burning fireplace, original fir floors, lath & plaster walls with arched doorways, picture rails and coved ceilings. As if the welcoming home isn’t enough, the balance of the property further enhances the experience! Cared for by a talented gardener for the past 2+ decades, the surroundings are perfectly designed to suit the home. Sweeping lawns, mature evergreens, ornamental trees, herbaceous flower borders, shrubs, bulbs, water features – it’s all here and carefully maintained, served by an underground irrigation system and ready for you to step in and enjoy. In addition to the ornamentals, there’s also a practical vegetable garden with greenhouse and room for compost systems and materials storage. Outbuildings on the property include a two car garage with single carport, well house, potting shed, workshop and “gardener’s studio” with a pretty patio and loft space. There’s also a partially finished sauna, ready for you to complete! The driveway is fully paved and there are concrete walks to the front door, the street and around the garage.
