Perched high above the shoreline, 820 Chuckanut Drive offers a front-row seat to the Pacific Northwest. Inspired by the "Not So Big House" philosophy, this custom residence prioritizes quality of design over sheer scale, perfectly framing unobstructed, endless views of Chuckanut Bay and the San Juan Islands. Crafted with top-tier materials, the interior features radiant floor heat, rich hardwood floors, and high ceilings throughout. A spacious living room on the main floor with a gas fireplace serves as a refined center for relaxation, while the culinary kitchen, complete with a massive island and large dining room, acts as the heart of the home. The main floor also hosts a luxury primary suite with southern exposure. Every inch reflects a commitment to craftsmanship. Upstairs, you will find two additional bedrooms with en-suite baths, a wet bar, and a spacious bonus area that opens to a covered deck with panoramic views. Outside, the backyard serves as a private oasis with a covered outdoor kitchen and built-in BBQ. Sited on a secluded 1.89-acre lot, the flat grassy yard and manicured pathways are framed by ledgestone retaining walls and hardscaping, exuding quality and timeless sophistication. Convenience is key with a large garage with an EV level 2 charger and generous parking. Located moments from the charm of Fairhaven, the Interurban Trail, and the beauty of Larrabee State Park, this property offers a lifestyle defined by natural beauty and architectural excellence.
