This waterfront home sat on the market for three months before it caught my eye on a Facebook story. When I toured it I could see that it was stuck in the 80s with lots of wallpaper & dated white oak cabinets. But I could also see incredible views of Padilla Bay as well as  60' of waterfront access & lots of potential.

We purchased it to use as a weekend retreat and short-term rental and made a large number of updates including refinishing the kitchen cabinetry, updating countertops & appliances & painting inside and out. It also got a new roof, heating & a small shower was added to the downstairs bath to improve flexibility.

We also replaced the fireplace (removing the old stone face on New Year's Day 2024) & I tiled it to give it a fresher feel while respecting the overall cabin aesthetic. While we enjoyed the home immensely, we decided life was too busy to properly use it and were pleased to sell it to a new owner as a full time residence.
