Property Description

The kind of home buyers hope to find but rarely do is here! 707 Poplar Drive offers a lifestyle of slow mornings, filled with sunlight pouring through south-facing windows, coffee on the new Trex deck while enjoying views of the lake, afternoons spent exploring nearby trails through Whatcom Falls Park, and evenings gathered in a home full of warmth and character. Thoughtfully updated while preserving its original character, this 3-bedroom, 1-bath home offers just over 1,500 sqft filled with warmth and personality. Original details like brick accents, and built-ins blend seamlessly with modern improvements, creating spaces that feel both timeless and comfortable. The functional layout offers abundant storage, welcoming entry spaces, a spacious laundry room, and an oversized bathroom with double vanity. Outside, the large sunny yard offers room to garden, entertain, play, or relax, complete with a custom organic Corten steel kitchen garden. The detached shop creates additional space for hobbies, storage, a home gym, boat parking or additional entertaining space. Extensive upgrades including new windows, ductless heat pump + A/C, appliances, refreshed landscaping, crawlspace improvements, custom window treatments, and an 8’ cedar privacy fence make this home as functional as it is beautiful. This is more than a home, it’s a place to slow down, settle in, and enjoy the very best of Bellingham living.
