Designed and transformed by a renowned mosaic artist, this one-of-a-kind home is a living work of art.

The main home features expansive studio space ideal for artists, makers, or entrepreneurs. In addition, the property includes two established rental opportunities: a charming tiny guest house with full bath, studio kitchen, and bedroom with STR history, and a separate upper-level studio/second bedroom that has performed as a long-term rental. Attached to the garage workshop, you’ll find a versatile apartment space with office area, utility sink, wood stove, and bathroom access all perfect for creative work, additional rental income, or a private workspace. Outdoors, enjoy a peaceful retreat with a covered back deck, screened-in porch, and outdoor shower overlooking lush gardens—an ideal setting to relax, recharge, and create. Located in the highly regarded Cascade school district a mile from the Bell Buckle Cafe, Coffee Shop, the park, antique stores and everything downtown Bell Buckle offers.
