Property Description
Make your Labor Day visit to Whidbey last a lifetime. Instead of leaving the island with that familiar ache of leaving part of your heart behind, imagine having a home here to call your own—every day or whenever you need to escape. Visit Water’s Edge this Monday, 1–6 PM, discover why the life you’ve been imagining for your "Someday" could begin now. Start Living Fully Now! About 30 feet from shore, this extensively updated home offers water views from virtually every room on approx. 1 acre with 100± feet of low-bank waterfront and 10,000± sq ft of private tidelands. Hand-hewn beams and a custom stainless-steel spiral staircase add character. Main-level primary suite with freestanding tub and curbless shower. Upstairs: second ensuite, additional bedroom and gathering space. Enclosed 60x20 catio/garden, shed, RV parking. No HOA. Consider converting the upstairs into its own private unit or building a DADU up to 1,200± sq ft, subject to county approval; buyer to verify configuration, septic and feasibility. An extremely successful short-term rental, especially in summer. Reserve your own getaways and rent other dates to help offset ownership costs. Tucked away from the road beside sheltered Holmes Harbor, yet minutes from Freeland Park, shops and groceries. Seals, shorebirds, changing tides and moonlight dancing on waves—the water is right there through the everyday moments that become your life. Let the rest of the world hurry. Here, the water keeps you company.
