About this home
Perched atop coveted Morgan Hill, this beautifully reimagined 1939 Cape Cod style home captures the best of Port Townsend living—timeless character, thoughtful modern updates and glimpses of the Strait of Juan de Fuca and Cascade Mountains. Set on an oversized, beautifully landscaped lot just above Uptown, the home feels wonderfully private while remaining connected to everything that makes this location so special. Inside, original character and warm architectural details meet a stunning BRAND-NEW kitchen designed for the way we live today, featuring custom cabinetry, quartz surfaces, designer tile, new appliances, farmhouse sink, walk-in pantry and a sun-filled breakfast nook. Hardwood floors, abundant natural light, a wood-burning fireplace and charming Dutch door add warmth and personality throughout. The flexible floor plan includes a main-level bedroom and nearby bath, while upstairs two spacious bedrooms enjoy water and mountain outlooks alongside a beautifully updated bath with soaking tub and skylight. Outside, the generous setting (13,068 square feet) offers established landscaping, garden space and room to relax, entertain or simply enjoy the privacy. An oversized garage with shop space plus basement storage add exceptional functionality. Historic charm without the renovation project. Modern comfort without sacrificing character. All in one of Port Townsend's most sought-after neighborhoods—this is Morgan Hill living at its best.
