About this home

Truly one of a kind, this custom home is tucked away at the end of a private driveway, offering exceptional privacy, no road noise, and no neighboring homes in sight. Completely renovated in 2018-2019, the home features a commercial grade newer foundation, windows, highline metal roof, custom blue-stained pine walls, and beautiful live-edge Western maple finishes. Efficient mini-splits provide heating and air conditioning, while the wood-burning fireplace and covered back deck create the feel of a Pacific Northwest lodge retreat in every season. The spacious floor plan includes four bedrooms, a fifth bedroom or office/den, a living room, and a separate family room. The property also features fruit trees, a chicken coop, a detached shop, and a private trail system-an ideal setting for those seeking space, tranquility, and a true connection to nature.
