Escape to this exceptional, fully permitted off-grid retreat surrounded by giant madrona, oak, fir, maple and hazelnut trees. The heart of the home features an inviting living space with vaulted ceilings, bright skylights, and a striking round stone hearth to keep you cozy during cooler months. Upstairs, two charming bedrooms flank a full bathroom with a soaking tub, connected by an open balcony hallway lined with ample closet space. The main floor offers flexible living with a living room, a utility bathroom, and an adjacent room perfect for a home office or a third bedroom. Engineered for complete independence, the property features a private well, septic system, and a meticulously maintained, fully owned infrastructure including a solar system, propane tanks, a generator, and a brand-new on-demand water heater. The 800-square-foot dry basement houses the water filtration and power conversion systems, leaving abundant space for storage or future finishing. Outside, the 7+ acre property guarantees ultimate privacy, bordered by serene wetlands that offer year-round bird watching. Set back from a quiet gravel road, the acreage includes an overgrown fenced garden with a chicken coop on one side of the driveway and an orchard on the other. Relax on the deck, gaze at the southern sky, and bring your dreams to life in this unique, self-sustaining paradise.
