About this home

Perched on an oversized lot with sweeping, unforgettable views of Bellingham Bay, the San Juan Islands, and surrounding mountains, this 1907 Craftsman offers a rare opportunity in one of Bellingham’s most sought-after locations . . . The South Hill. Owned by the same family since the 1940s, the property presents an exceptional opportunity to reimagine, restore, or create something entirely new. The existing home and foundation provide a potential starting point for your vision, while the generous lot may offer possibilities for an ADU or additional developmentbuyer to verify. Whether preserving the character and charm of the original Craftsman or designing a stunning custom residence that takes full advantage of the views, this property offers flexibility, privacy, and tremendous potential. Ideally located just minutes from Fairhaven, with easy access to waterfront parks, trails, shopping, dining and the amenities of South Bellingham. A truly special setting where location, views, and opportunity come together. Home is being sold AS IS.

About South Hill Historic

District

South Hill Historic District, located between Downtown Bellingham and Fairhaven, is a historic and residential Bellingham neighborhood with hillside views and a walkable street grid. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the 11th Street and Harris Avenue corridor, where corner cafes, small galleries, and local eateries set a steady, lived-in pace. Queen Anne and Craftsman homes line tree-shaded blocks, with brick retaining walls and stair streets stepping down toward the bay. Boulevard Park’s shoreline path frames daily routines with water and mountain sightlines. Community touchstones include the Mount Baker Theatre, Village Books, and the Pickford Film Center.
