About this home

Enjoy the best of Bellingham from a remarkable setting, perched over 500 feet above sea level, in a beautiful neighborhood near Fairhaven, Edgemoor, Parkhurst & Chuckanut. Sweeping views of the bay, islands, mountains & city lights pair with a private, park-like half-acre setting that feels elevated above it all, yet connected to everything. Expansive windows bring the views into the spacious family room, complemented by a generous kitchen with a large walk-in pantry, formal dining room, office, and main-floor guest bedroom & bath. Upstairs, five additional bedrooms include a large primary suite with spectacular views & a cozy fireplace. Hardwood floors throughout, air conditioning for year-round comfort, a newer furnace. The roof, gutters and skylights were all replaced in 2022. Huge walk-in crawlspace with tons of storage space, a 3-car garage & long driveway with room for RV parking add exceptional versatility. Enjoy sunsets & sparkling city lights from the deck, or gather on the expansive brick patio overlooking mature fruit trees, garden space & surrounding greenspace. Just minutes from Fairhaven’s shops & dining, WWU, downtown Bellingham & I-5, this home offers a rare combination of location, views, privacy, and space.
