Property Description

This is a view you will never get tired of. Perched at the north end of Lake Whatcom in coveted Silver Beach, this home delivers all the best parts of lakefront living — the water, the light, year-round panoramic sunsets, the boats gliding by — without the lakefront price tag. Two resident eagles hunt the lake daily, right outside your windows, and Silver Beach public access sits just around the corner, with Barkley Village and downtown Bellingham an easy drive. Inside, a beautiful remodel has it ready to enjoy on day one: a stunning reimagined kitchen, updated bathrooms, and luxury carpet, wood flooring, trim, woodwork and doors throughout, while vaulted ceilings and skylights leave the home bathed in natural light, and efficient heating and air conditioning on every floor keep it comfortable in every season. The primary suite with ensuite bath is on the main level — your own retreat, no stairs, with the lake right outside the window — and six bedrooms and 3.75 baths mean room for everyone: guests, home offices, all of it. Downstairs, three bedrooms occupy their own natural footprint, making them a terrific candidate for conversion to separate living space for multigenerational living or extended guests (buyer to verify). Outside, a fully fenced yard and tons of parking. Hot tub ready! Pad and wiring are already in place — just add water and soak with the lake in front of you. Come take a bite of this slice of heaven.
