About this home
Stunning, private 1.66 acre, 3 bedroom, 2.25 bath architect-designed home on the edge of Fairhaven. This rare, beautiful Sid Nesbit designed home must be seen to be appreciated. The interior features include hardwood floors, high-end Aga stove, open floor plan, clear fir woodwork, woodburning and gas stoves, pantry, second kitchen, extensive storage, reading nook, home office with walls of window views, five skylights and extensive natural light, an ensuite downstairs bedroom with attached bath and spacious upstairs primary bedroom with walk-in closet, large library, ice machine, custom remote blinds and so much more. The outside includes a large professional green house, numerous fruit trees, fenced garden space, a beautiful waterfall, outdoor greenhouse diner, covered patio, over 30 Japanese maples, magnificent legacy trees and Padden Creek runs through the back of the property. In addition to the professional greenhouse that has water and power, the front of the expansive property includes a small artists cottage with electricity and the back has a storage building with loft and power. A large detached 2-car garage with EV charging connected to the house by a covered walkway has a spacious attached woodshop. The large lot appears to meet the criteria for subdivision, meaning a second lot can likely be created. This house isn’t just a home, it is a true sanctuary nestled in one of the more desirable areas of Bellingham and only steps from parks, bus, playgrounds and trails.
