About this home

Great opportunity on Lummi Island! Tucked up off the road on a beautifully forested .28-acre lot, this cabin offers privacy and filtered natural light that's hard to find this close to the water. Wooded, sloped, and terraced, the setting feels like a true retreat while still being just minutes from the ferry and the community's shared amenities. The big-ticket items that typically hold buyers back from a project like this have already been handled. The 2-bedroom septic system and water connection are in place, and new subfloor, new drywall, and all-new plumbing have been installed throughout. That means the heavy lifting, the expensive, permit-driven infrastructure work, is done. What's left is largely cosmetic: flooring, paint, finish work, and personal touches, giving a buyer the chance to make this cabin their own without absorbing the cost and hassle of a full gut renovation. Whether you're looking for a weekend getaway, a hands-on project, or an affordable entry point into Lummi Island living, this is a rare chance to get into the community at a lower price point while still ending up with a home built to your own taste. Homeownership includes access to a beach, boat launch, boat docks, clubhouse, swimming lake, and playground, all maintained through the HOA. Bring your vision, your tool belt, and your sense of adventure!
