Nestled in the quiet Potlatch neighborhood on Guemes Island’s sunny West Beach, this 3-story, 3-bedroom, 2,176-square-foot home offers tranquility, water views, and shared ownership in @ one mile of sandy beach frontage. A peaceful sense of zen greets you… a porte-cochere entry, lush gardens and mature landscaping, with views of the Bellingham Channel, Cypress Island, ferries, & the Olympic Mountains from nearly every level. Thoughtfully designed for main-floor living, the home features new oak floors, soaring ceilings, French doors, and a propane fireplace. The chef’s kitchen has granite countertops, smoky charcoal premium appliances, and a deep sink overlooking the gardens. The main-floor bedroom enjoys serene garden & forest views alongside an elegant ¾ bath w/ slate tile & glassed-in shower. Downstairs, a spacious family room with patio access, full bath, flex room, and oversized laundry room w/ utility sink & generous workspace. Upstairs, a loft-style bedroom suite w/ tiled ¾ bath. Above attached 2-car garage, a 360sqft “pied-à-terre” guest suite w/water views, coffee bar, mini fridge, and ¾ bath—ideal for guests or possible rental use. Added bonuses for island life include automatic backup generator, solar panels, & a 4,500-gal rain catchment cistern (for watering) w/pressure tank inside clematis-covered shed. Two beach access paths right across the street—one deeded, one a secret old neighborhood trail—complete this rare island retreat. Guemes, the secret San Juan!
