This brand new contemporary Craftsman home on the Park is owner-built with exceptional attention to detail. Majestic Whatcom Falls Park borders the property, with its pristine 200 acres of trails, waterfalls, swimming holes, and wildlife literally right out the back door. This home was built to be enjoyed with comfortable contemporary furnishings, tasteful art, warm fireplaces, and cozy gathering places. In all seasons you'll be treated to an abundance of light from numerous skylights, large windows, French doors, and a beautiful sunroom.
The open floor plan on the main floor is great for family and corporate gatherings. The master suite with it's gas fireplace, private deck over looking the park, vaulted ceilings, Bose surround sound system, and jetted bath tub for two, is perfect for the romantic getaway. Completed in 2008, you'll find its details stylish and contemporary, as well as timeless in quality--solid granite counter tops, stainless appliances, cast iron claw foot bath tub, marble steam room, real flagstone and VG Fir fireplace. This house is beautiful enough to look like a work of art, yet comfortable enough to feel like a home.

[copied from guest book] Erik – Thank you so much for letting us use your beautiful house! We all enjoyed the hot tub Saturday night. I hope you found everything in order after we left on Sunday. Thanks, Michelle

[copied from guest book] I'm not sure how we could have verbally expressed what a good time we had. My family members have nice homes, but they really dug your floor plan and colors. We never got into hot tub, but the rest of the house, especially the kitchen, was well used. My sister cooked liked mad. Honestly Eric, getting a house just completely changed the whole weekend. Having that house in particular brought it to a new level. everyone said they felt very much at home. It is a prefect gathering place, with great proximity to the park. I envy your position there. The pictures on VRBO do not do the place justice. We all feel that that weekend was one of the best we've had in a long time, and your house was a big part of that equation. Thank you so much for doing business with me on such short notice and excepting my offer. My graduation celebration would not have been the same without you.
