About the host
Hosted by Brad
We are water lovers that found the perfect Mid-Century Modern beachfront property that just needed a little love. Once we completed a renovation, we decided to allow others to share in the the beauty of the Northwest!
Why they chose this property
Easy walk to the Birch Bay State Park and boat ramp, yet just far enough from town to avoid noise and traffic.
What makes this property unique
It’s a 1957 Mid-Century modern that was still owned by the original builder’s family until we purchased it in 2023. We updated it with a high end custom kitchen and bath, among other things, that are all in keeping with the original style.
