This beautiful Puget Sound waterfront retreat is much more than a cabin. It was a well known architect’s home who envisioned living on a cruise ship right on the water. Our house, featured in Premier Homes, is one of a kind with over 200 feet of no bank waterfront and over 1 ½ miles of very secluded beach for you to explore right from your door.
This area is part of the Aquatic reserve, the only one designated in Washington State. The Cascade Marine Trail runs through this which brings kayakers from near and far through the islands. You will be able to view all sorts of wildlife, from nearby bald eagles to orcas, sea lions, otters, herons and other numerous birds.
The patio, hot tub and “indoor” lighthouse will also be grand spots to view the many cargo ships and fishing boats that go by Vashon Island daily. Enjoy beach fires at night, along with late night beach walks which will be memories that will last a lifetime. Wait until you take a flashlight along the beach at night at low tide and view sea creatures you’ve never seen before!
The home is unique, with views of Mount Rainier from every room. Imagine waking up every day with a view of the majestic mountain and the sound of the waves of Puget Sound as your wake up call. The property faces mostly south, on the sun side of the island, with almost half of the rainfall of nearby areas. Madrona trees thrive here.
The kitchen is fully equipped with a dishwasher, gas stove, microwave, trash compactor and plenty of storage. You will be able to prepare your meals while enjoying the outside through your picture window. You will love eating in the stunning, all window dining room while watching the wildlife and ships go by.
