About this home

A magnificent bay and island view marks this remarkably private acreage on Bellingham's South Side. The contemporary cedar home features a soaring ceiling and dramatic window wall looking into its own private forest, with multiple skylights and a huge deck that brings the outdoors in. Private master suite, separate dining room and family room off the kitchen provide spaces for both togetherness and private reflection. The full unfinished basement is wonderful hobby or storage space.
