The Humptulips River Retreat is a a must see recreational get away! One of the standout features of this property is the extensive, fully permitted renovation completed by the current owners. Over a two-year period, they worked with local contractors and engineers to execute a 10-foot home lift that preserved the home's character while significantly enhancing its functionality, value, and flood resilience. The lift created approximately 1,000 square feet of garage space beneath the home, featuring 8-foot garage doors and a unique pass-through design ideal for ATVs, UTVs, and other recreational vehicles. Engineered for long-term durability, the project includes reinforced stem walls, waterproofed lower-level construction, and flood vents designed to manage hydrostatic pressure and protect the home from changing river conditions. Outdoor living was transformed with a 550-square-foot entertainment deck featuring Wi-Fi access, outdoor speakers, a new staircase, and under-deck drainage for year-round usability. A reinforced section with a dedicated 50-amp circuit is ready for a future hot tub or sauna. Designed for an active outdoor lifestyle, the lower level includes a full bathroom, commercial-grade dog wash station, dedicated razor clam and fish cleaning station, RV hookups with power, water, and septic access, and ample storage for vehicles and recreational equipment. Seabrook and ocean beaches are just a few miles down the road
