About this home

Escape to your own little backyard retreat in Birch Bay Village. Sit beneath the cedars with your morning coffee, watch herons, geese and mallards along the canal, and keep an eye out for visiting deer and the owl that calls the trees home. Peaceful and private, it feels like your favorite birding spot, right in your backyard. This well-loved, well-cared-for home offers bright, open-concept living, vaulted ceilings and two living rooms for gathering with friends or cozying up with a book. Single-level living keeps things easy, while a new roof, new flooring, fresh paint and updated bathroom vanities give the home a fresh, welcoming look. Move-in ready and waiting for its next chapter. Two patios give you room to entertain or find a quiet spot to yourself. Gather by the fire as the sun sets down the canal, enjoy the pear and apple trees, or plant a garden in the flat, low-maintenance yard. With the community’s private beaches, golf course, seasonal pool and marina with affordable moorage nearby, there’s plenty to enjoy close to home. A cozy place to settle in, with a vacation feel and a friendly price point. A one-year, 1% temporary rate buydown is available through our preferred lender at no additional cost to the buyer.
