About this home

Experience the best of Sandy Point canal-front living in this 3-bedroom, 1.75-bath home offering approximately 1,700 square feet and direct access to the water. The bright, open kitchen creates an inviting gathering space and flows easily into the living area, where a sliding glass door opens directly to the canal-side patio. The outdoor space offers a wonderfully private feel—perfect for relaxing, entertaining, or watching the activity on the canal. The primary bedroom features peaceful water views, while an additional bedroom offers its own private deck. A main-floor bedroom includes a custom Murphy bed, providing flexible space for guests, a home office, or everyday living. Outside, you’ll find a rare concrete bulkhead and private 40-foot dock, ideal for boating, fishing, kayaking, and crabbing. Sandy Point provides boaters with exceptional access to Matia, Sucia, and the San Juan Islands, making it easy to head out for a day of island exploring, fishing, or cruising. Additional features include an attached garage with a convenient workshop area, generous off-street parking, and a detached storage shed. Community amenities include a 9-hole golf course, swimming pool, pickleball courts, clubhouses, marina, and boat launch. A special opportunity for year-round canal-front living or a memorable coastal getaway.
