About this home

An extraordinary opportunity to complete a custom-designed Northwest contemporary residence in one of Bellingham's most desirable recreational settings. Designed by Morris Originals, this architecturally striking home is situated on nearly 5 private, low-maintenance acres above Lake Samish, with shared waterfront access. The home's exterior is complete, while the interior remains unfinished, offering the next owner the opportunity to bring their own vision, finishes, and personal style to life. The thoughtfully designed floor plan features main-level living with 3 bedrooms, a dedicated office, and den, complemented by an expansive daylight basement with potential for an ADU, guest accommodations, recreation space, or additional living quarters. Enjoy exceptional proximity to Lake Samish watersports, Galbraith Mountain biking, and the renowned Chuckanut trails, all just minutes from Bellingham. With the architectural design, planning, and significant construction already completed, much of the groundwork has been laid for an exceptional custom home. Offered in its current unfinished condition, with interior completion to be undertaken by the purchaser. A rare opportunity to create a truly distinctive Pacific Northwest retreat without starting from the ground up.
