About this home
Perched high above the shoreline, this extraordinary waterfront homesite captures sweeping views across Penn Cove, Saratoga Passage, Camano Island, the Olympic Mountains, Mount Baker, and Mount Rainier on clear days. From glowing sunrises to ever-changing Northwest skies, the setting is private, elevated, and unforgettable, with the rhythm of the tides below and your canvas of sea and sky. Watch eagles soar overhead and enjoy the peaceful feeling of being above it all. This is more than a place to build—it’s a place to create a lifestyle. Envision expansive windows, seamless indoor-outdoor living, inviting entertaining spaces, and evenings around a fire feature overlooking the water, all shaped around the custom home design that fits your vision. Here, privacy, light, and open space come together in a setting that feels both elevated and grounded. Approved 4-bedroom septic is installed, and the well is in place, offering a strong head start toward a substantial custom home in an area of quality waterfront residences. Protected farmland ensures no big development being built across the street. Nearby Penn Cove Park offers beach access, kayaking, clamming, crabbing, and the coastal beauty. Conveniently located between Coupeville and Oak Harbor, this rare offering combines scenic beauty, privacy, and accessibility in a remarkable setting. Your east-facing orientation offers a more sheltered perspective, protecting your home from harsh westerly winds and intense summer sun.
