You’ll want to buy this house for the scenery alone!
Take in gorgeous views of Fox Island, Carr Inlet, Hale Passage, and the Olympic Mountains as you watch the sun set over the sound. Sitting on a third of an acre and just shy of 2500 square feet, this beauty with 4 bedrooms and 2.5 baths has received multiple updates both inside and out over the last three years, including engineered European Oak floors, new Milgard windows throughout most of the house, a new furnace, upgrades to the master bath, and all recently replaced bathroom vanities and light fixtures.
Downstairs features a living room, formal dining room, laundry and mudroom, and a bonus room that can be used as an office or playroom. The previously remodeled kitchen, which opens to a breakfast nook and den, has quartz countertops, tile backsplash, updated cabinets, island with gas range, pantry, wall oven, and stainless appliances—including a wine fridge! Upstairs the master suite boasts views of the water, and plenty of windows throughout the house create a beautifully bright and open atmosphere. Entertain effortlessly on the expansive maintenance-free back deck, and enjoy apple trees, rose bushes, and freshened up landscaping in the peaceful and private backyard. Other home features include a wood-burning fireplace, air conditioning, three-car garage, wiring for generator power, and sport court with an adjustable basketball hoop. All appliances stay with the house. Low monthly HOA fees cover aspects such as road maintenance (neighborhood streets were resurfaced just last year!), a tennis and basketball court, and well.
