Tastefully updated mid century modern home with incredible views of the Mountain's, Islands & Bellingham Bay. Natural light filters thru large picture windows and the doors. The panoramic views are ever changing. Adjacent to the home is a detached studio offering many options for a quiet space, creativity, and relaxation. A tranquil goldfish pond with waterfall creates a beautiful focal point in the yard. The flagstone walkway is surrounded by colorful perennials, trees and ferns. Evenings can be enjoyed dining al fresco in the gazebo with string lights overhead, and later on there's stargazing on the deck off the kitchen and living room. Add your own rooftop garden over the spacious 2 car garage. The sunsets here are spectacular!
