About this home
Welcome to your Whidbey Island private retreat, nestled on nearly 5 acres of lush, rolling land with walking trails extending from the back of the property. A private circular driveway ensures easy access, while the prime location offers excellent walkability to downtown Langley. Inside and out, expansive windows frame breathtaking natural views. Vaulted ceilings and exposed beams in the living room enhance the sense of space and invite abundant natural light. Just off the gourmet kitchen, a versatile flex room with a fireplace can serve as a cozy den and opens to both a covered deck and an uncovered patio—perfect for entertaining. The home features two spacious primary suites: one, currently used as a studio with a fireplace and 3/4 bath; the other, offering a luxurious full bath with a walk-in shower, soaking tub, and built-in cabinetry. The guest house, situated near the detached two-car garage, includes a kitchenette and 3/4 bath, providing comfortable accommodations for visitors. As you explore the property, you'll find an outbuilding currently used as a writer's bunkhouse. This inspirational setting, with ever-changing light and natural beauty, offers a daily masterpiece and the true comfort of home. Updates include a new 3-bedroom septic for the main home, a 2-bedroom septic for the guest house, windows, blinds, decks, guardrails, fence, washer/dryer, dishwasher, exterior, and interior paint.
