Property Description
Discover an extraordinary 60-acre private sanctuary where luxury living and the beauty of the Pacific Northwest come together. This one-of-a-kind estate features a custom-built home overlooking an incredible 8-acre private lake with its own island and the headwaters of Haynie Creek, where salmon return to spawn and abundant wildlife thrives. Miles of private roads and trails meander through towering evergreens, around the lake, and alongside the creek, creating your own nature preserve.

Each level of the home includes its own bedroom and bath, complemented by spacious gathering areas, a recreation room with wet bar, media room, office, fitness room, and a secure safe room. The impressive 2,280-square-foot heated shop features a 1/2 bath, loft storage, and 2 second-story viewing decks. Add'l amenities include a 550 sf greenhouse with plumbing, power, automatic ventilation, a large chicken coop, covered dog run, and a 30kW automatic backup generator with a dedicated 1,000-gallon propane tank. As a working tree farm, the property also offers valuable tax benefits and long-term investment potential. Exceptionally private, yet only minutes from Blaine, Bellingham, and Vancouver, BC, this is a truly rare PNW paradise
