About this home

Nestled in one of Bellingham's most sought-after Columbia neighborhood. This charming Cape Cod offers the perfect blend of character, comfort, and nature. A new roof and enlarged skylights bring peace of mind and an abundance of natural light to the home's already inviting spaces. The main floor features rich hardwood floors, a generous dining room, two bedrooms, and a full bath, while the private upper-level primary suite includes a bonus flex space / walk-in closet and ¾ bath. Step outside to a level, fully fenced backyard — a rare find in the Columbia Neighborhood — with two patios, a covered built-in BBQ kitchen and lush flower gardens. Two additional storage sheds to store all your toys and tools. The property extends down to a wooded creek corridor where owls, eagles, and native wildlife are regular visitors. Private and serene, yet minutes from downtown Bellingham, the Bay, and Whatcom County trails!
