About this home
A rare opportunity to own a piece of Anacortes history in a prime Old Town location. Set on an extraordinary 12,000+ sq ft lot, this iconic circa-1920 home was once known as the Blue Rose Bed & Breakfast—a welcoming destination where travelers gathered, gardens flourished, and guests experienced the charm of historic Anacortes. The main level offers 3 bedrooms and 3 baths, while the full basement expands the possibilities with additional living quarters and a kitchen—ideal for extended living, guests, creative space, or exploring future options. A brand new roof and newer two-car garage with alley access adds valuable modern convenience. The expansive grounds recall the Blue Rose in its glory, with a prized rose garden, mature peach, apple and cherry trees, along with vegetable and herb gardens. With more than 12,000 sq ft of land, there is remarkable space and potential rarely found in this coveted Old Town setting. Rich with character and ready for its next chapter, this is an opportunity to restore, re-imagine and make a truly special property your own. Preserve the history, bring the gardens back to their full glory, create a remarkable Old Town estate, or explore additional possibilities subject to City approval. More than a home, 1811 9th Street is a piece of Anacortes history. Once the Blue Rose B&B, it has welcomed generations through its doors and gardens. Now this iconic property awaits its next steward and a new chapter in its story.
