Property Description

Positioned in one of Bellingham's most coveted neighborhoods, this mid-century home captures sweeping westerly views of Bellingham Bay and the city skyline. Set on a well-maintained, partially fenced 9,148 sq ft lot, this one-owner home offers a rare opportunity to reimagine a classic in an exceptional location. Expansive windows in the living and dining areas showcase the views, while a gas fireplace creates a warm, inviting focal point. The main level features 1,540 sq ft with three bedrooms, a full bath, a half bath off the primary, and a dedicated office. A deck off the kitchen provides an ideal setting for outdoor dining overlooking the bay. The partially finished daylight basement (1,062 sq ft) includes two additional bedrooms, a half bath & laundry room, a spacious family room with a wood-burning fireplace and separate entry—perfect for a workshop or hobby space. Additional features include a flat driveway to the garage, secondary lower-level access, and ample parking for RV or boat. Located near the Samish Crest Trail in the desirable Puget neighborhood, this property offers location, space, and outstanding potential.
