Perched directly on a high-bank bluff with approximately 80 feet of waterfront, this south-facing home offers front-row views of the Strait of Georgia, San Juan Islands, and Mt. Baker. The scenery shifts with the light, seasons, & eagles that soar over the bay—an ever-changing backdrop you’ll never tire of. Large, flat driveway provides parking for 5+ vehicles, a rare waterfront convenience. Inside, a dramatic 14’+ entry, smoked-glass French doors, & an inlaid compass rose set the tone. Polished concrete floors with 9-zone radiant heat, tall interior doors, & walls of windows frame the views throughout. The great room is anchored by a striking 4-sided fireplace, while a waterside bonus room offers flexible space for an office, hobbies, or studio. The chef’s kitchen features Brazilian granite, a 48” Viking range, new Thermador refrigerator & Bosch dishwasher (2023), & a massive 5’ x 15’ pantry large enough for a second or third refrigerator. Main floor primary suite with water views, soaking tub, curb-less shower, & an impressive 208 sq ft walk-through closet. A 1,061 sq ft guest suite above the garage includes a living room, private bedroom, full bath, & Mt. Baker views. Outdoor living shines with a covered waterside patio, built-in BBQ & rotisserie, seaside hot tub, & mature landscaping anchored by a rare 70’ sequoia. A metal roof, 36 solar panels, whole-house generator (2022), & an average electric bill of just $7.49/month make this home as efficient as it is stunning.
