A rare opportunity in the heart of Birch Bay! This charming vintage bungalow comes with two parcels—a cozy home on one lot PLUS a buildable adjacent lot, offering incredible flexibility for future expansion, investment, or simply extra space to enjoy. Nestled in a quaint neighborhood just a short distance from the beachfront, this property blends character with thoughtful updates. The 2-bedroom, 1-bath home features a newer metal roof, updated laminate flooring, fresh interior and exterior paint, Andersen windows, and beautiful quartz countertops—making it truly feel like a home, not just a cabin. The fully fenced yard offers room to garden, relax, or entertain, and includes a studio space ready for your vision, a spacious work shed, and even a chicken coop/dog run. Build, hold, rent, or expand- whether you choose to keep both lots or explore development potential, the possibilities here are wide open. Conveniently located within the growing communities of Blaine and Birch Bay, with quick I-5 access to Bellingham and the U.S.–Canada border for world class dining, shopping, and entertainment.
