Get away from it all, just not too far! Light & airy like-new 4-bedroom home waits in prime & private Sudden Valley location, just minutes from downtown Bellingham. Tucked discretely on 3 lots in the middle of acres of undeveloped community-owned land, this 2500+sqft 2-story is a green refuge against the chaos of the 'out there'. Marbled quartz countertops & stainless appliances stake the gathering kitchen with south-facing windowbox, tons of cabinetry and homework station. Regal ledgestone fireplace anchors the high-ceilinged living room w/ windows on every wall. Huge main-floor suite w/ dedicated bath could be primary bed, library, yoga space or music room. Second story has true laundry room w/ utility sink + 3 more large beds, including second primary suite with luxurious private bath and walk-in closet w/ window. Got stuff? There's plenty of storage here, with over-sized closets throughout and lots of custom storage on the ground floor, including professionally-built walk-in gear room w/ shelving. And don't forget the garage w/ concrete coated floor, perfect for home gym. Enjoy a stroll around the low-traffic neighborhood or on any one of Sudden Valley's world-class hiking trails-- right out your front door. Still, sometimes you just gotta stay put--relax on the covered deck or in the Almost Heaven 6-person sauna, while the neighborhood owls stand watch. Ductless heat pump AC for the warm days; two fireplaces for the cool nights. An all-season honey of a home.
