PROPERTY RENTAL PENDING. When you get home to this forest retreat, it feels like you're a world away but you're always near everything in Port Townsend. A haven, where you won't be disturbed by neighbors, you won't have to share a place with the owner or other tenants. Just your own space and solitude. Rent of $2,600 can be discounted to $2,400 if you are able to do heavy lifting to help take trash to the nearby transfer center once a month. This modern furnished 900 sq. ft. 2BR/1BA home built in 2009 can also come unfurnished. Fantastic natural light with many windows and skylights, plus luxurious outdoor spacious country living. Has been a pet-free home but pets will be considered. It is one of just two houses on 5 acres with front and back decks, a social area with a covered pavilion for entertaining and 2 acres of private forest trails for daily walks. House is tucked away on a 400-ft driveway up from the road, with nearly total privacy from the other house. Single-level modern home with a sliding door out to a large back deck with BBQ. Separate laundry room with new Speed Queen washer and dryer. Dishwasher. Full-size electric stove and refrigerator. Walk-in shower (no tub). Available late March for the first time in 4 years due to the tenants moving out of state (you can talk to them as a reference when you view the property). Seeking long-term tenant for a 12 to 18 month lease, a way to lock in your rent and peace of mind. Requests for tours will not be considered until we have exchanged personal messages here or a Zillow application has been completed. Fast, secure application online on Zillow is $35 and required for each adult. Include proof of income such as paystub or other document.

Covered shelter for your kayaks and bikes. Plenty of guest parking, plus room for an RV or boat. Large circular driveway makes coming and going with big vehicles easy. Quiet and private modern rental houses on acreage just minutes from the town center are scarce in Port Townsend. Cyclists, runners and walkers can be on the Larry Scott Trail in 5-10 minutes and then to the Port Townsend waterfront in 1.7 miles or downtown in 4 miles. Within 10 minutes driving are the grocery stores, many restaurants, the PT winery, Uptown, the Farmer's Market, the hospital, Downtown Waterfront District and Fort Worden trails. Being at the southern end of PT, adjacent to SR20, you don't need to drive through all of PT to get in and out of town. That can save you 20-30 minutes a day if you commute or travel frequently outside PT, go to Seattle or make supply runs to Sequim, Poulsbo or Silverdale. Minutes to SR20. About 40 minutes to the Kingston ferry over to Seattle. Big box stores are 45 minutes away in Sequim or Silverdale. We accept reusable tenant screening reports.
