About this home

Rare Lake Samish waterfront opportunity - sold strictly AS-IS, WHERE-IS. Set on 0.6 acre no-bank waterfront parcel with 72+ feet of frontage on the lake's coveted northeast shore, this 1982 Northwest Contemporary offers the setting and views that simply cannot be built today. The 2,826+sf, 3-bed/3-bath home features a soaring vaulted wood ceiling, an oversized living room with a fireplace and woodstove, a kitchen with breakfast nook, formal dining, and a main-level bath with sauna. Upstairs are two guest bedrooms and a primary suite with a lake-view balcony. An attached 3+ car garage offers rare storage for boats and water-sport gear, and a private dock and float await restoration. This is a true fixer for the visionary buyer or builder. The roof has a small leak, is at the end of its economic life, and needs immediate replacement, and the home shows deferred maintenance, settling, and stress cracking; the primary bath is semi-finished. Bring your contractor and your imagination....
