About this home
A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a legacy home on 400+ feet of low-bank waterfront on a private shy 8.3 acres - all located on Guemes Island, the 'secret' San Juan Island, a mere 5-minute ferry ride from Anacortes. Fill your days with fishing & crabbing, beach combing & agate hunting, and even reeling in salmon straight from your own shore. Spend evenings warming by the firepit under a canopy of stars. A private boat launch and deep-water mooring buoy make the Salish Sea your personal playground, while wooded walking paths meander through the property like quiet invitations to wander. The 5,344 sqft main home, with 5 bedrooms & 4 baths, wears its elegant & warm architecture like a well-loved sweater. Clear-grain cedar wraps the living room walls beneath 20' vaulted ceilings, and picture windows frame panoramic, east-facing views of the Salish Sea & Mount Baker; sunrises here feel like a private front-row show. Spend cozy nights by the family room's stone fireplace, retreat to a primary suite with its own fireplace & skylights, and gather around the wet bar for sunset toasts. A separate ADU offers a generous shop for projects below and a 1 bed/1 bath apartment above. Trained Island EMS coupled with dedicated ambulance response from Anacortes provides amazing emergency response time and service. Property has amazing AirBNB potential with no limits on rentals like San Juan County. Do not miss this chance; this one-of-a-kind property truly enchants. See you on the island....
