About this home

Beach days don’t have to wait for the weekend. At Whaler’s Village, one of the area’s rare beachfront communities, residents enjoy private access to the shoreline, making sunset walks, kayaking, and putting your feet in the sand part of everyday life. This bright, top-floor 1-bedroom, 1-bath home offers an easy, low-maintenance lifestyle. An oversized sliding glass door fills the living room with natural light and opens to a spacious deck with extra storage. Step outside to take in the water view and fresh Puget Sound air. Inside, enjoy a thoughtfully remodeled kitchen, an updated bath, new carpet, and a walk-in pantry/flex space that adds rare versatility. The gated community features assigned parking, a swimming pool, community garden, and a pet-friendly atmosphere. Leave the car at home to explore the Des Moines Marina, local dining, waterfront parks, and the seasonal farmer's market, with SeaTac Airport, light rail, and major freeways just a short drive away. Move right in and experience authentic beachfront living.
