Property Description

Custom-built Northwest home set on nearly an acre just outside Bellingham city limits, offering the space, privacy, and connection to nature that define Pacific Northwest living. Surrounded by greenery with views of Lake Whatcom and the bay, this home is designed to maximize natural light, scenery, and indoor-outdoor living throughout. The main-level primary suite features radiant heated floors and French doors opening to the wraparound deck, creating a peaceful place to start and end the day. Soaring ceilings and expansive windows fill the living spaces with warmth and light, while the formal dining room and open kitchen make hosting effortless. Upstairs, a covered balcony connects the office and bedroom for a quiet escape overlooking the landscape. The lower level lives like its own private suite with flexible space for guests, entertaining, or multi-generational living, complete with a theater room, sauna, kitchenette, bedroom, full bath, and bonus space. Just minutes from town and close to Lake Whatcom recreation, this property offers the balance of serenity, convenience, and all with room to breathe.
