Property Description

Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac on a large lot backing to a greenbelt, this extensively updated 5 bed, 2.5 bath home offers privacy, quality, and a truly exceptional outdoor lifestyle. Nearly every inch of the home has been thoughtfully upgraded inside and out over the past 2–3 years, including new siding, roof, paint, bathrooms, and a high-efficiency HVAC system. Inside, you’ll find Brazilian cherry and oak hardwood floors, wainscoting, crown molding, and a well-designed layout with multiple living spaces that provide flexibility and separation. The kitchen is built for entertaining, featuring granite countertops, black stainless appliances, a matching granite counter table, and abundant storage. The primary suite offers a true retreat with its own fireplace, jetted tub, walk-in closet with California Closet system, and spa-like feel, while an additional fireplace anchors the main level living space. Additional features include a built-in vacuum system and generous storage throughout. Step outside to a backyard that feels like your own private retreat—complete with Trex decking, gazebo, brick fireplace, hot tub, and beautifully curated landscaping that creates a “Disneyland-like” setting. Additional storage under the home offers space for bikes, gear, or hobbies. Ideally located near Whatcom Falls Park, trail systems, Galbraith Mountain, and with easy I-5 access, this home blends comfort, function, and location.
