    What's special

    Mature landscapingVersatile garage
    This inviting one-level, 2-bedroom, 1 bath home—paired with a versatile garage and 1 bedroom, 1 bath studio apartment—is in one of Guemes Island’s most sought-after locations. Just moments from the Guemes Store, the ferry dock, and a beautiful beach perfect for long shoreline walks, it offers the ideal blend of convenience and island charm. A public boat ramp beside the ferry dock makes launching kayaks or boats effortless. From the property, enjoy tranquil views of the Guemes Channel, Fidalgo Island, and the steady parade of boats drifting by, adding a touch of coastal magic to everyday living. The house is 960 SF, and the guest apartment is 384 SF. The mature landscaping is a delight to see. The hedges provide a great privacy screen from the road but doesn't block the views. a large shed on the west side of the property is ideal for storing all the garden tools. Enjoy island life with the convenience of a 7-minute ferry.
