Surprisingly spacious and wonderfully private, just a stone’s throw from the beach, ferry dock, and the beloved Guemes Island Store & Restaurant. Set well back from the road, this sunny 1966-built main home offers 1,848 sq ft with 2 bedrooms, 2 baths and two "flex" spaces, wrapped in 900 sq ft of decks, 300 sq ft of which are covered. They truly don’t build them like this anymore—solid, timeless construction throughout. Designed for easy indoor-outdoor living, the home features multiple sliders, perfect for summer evenings and entertaining. Charming details abound, including French doors, stained-glass light fixtures, parquet flooring, beadboard walls, two cozy fireplaces, and a classic farmhouse kitchen with eating area. The living and dining spaces add warmth and character at every turn. Enjoy peek-a-boo views of the Guemes Channel from the decks and several rooms—you can see the water! A magical detached studio with a view sits in the private backyard, complete with its own outdoor fireplace—perfect for guests, creative space, or quiet retreat. A long driveway offers abundant parking, capped by a carport ideal for boats, golf carts, and all your island extras. Just a half-block away, the boat launch and ferry dock beach connect to miles of sandy shoreline, including the 60-acre Peach Preserve on South Beach and Kelly’s Point, known for its half-mile stretch of agate-laden pebbles. Welcome to Guemes—truly the “secret” San Juan Island.
