About this home

This turnkey recreational cabin sits just steps from the tideline, framed by mature firs and open to sweeping views of the Olympics to the west and Mount Rainier to the southeast. Finished to a level rarely seen in a getaway property. Inside, a wall of windows and vaulted ceilings pull the water in from every angle. Shiplap walls, quartz counters, farmhouse sink, propane range, and stainless appliances make the compact kitchen genuinely usable. An electric fireplace anchors the living space, and a cable-rail staircase climbs to an open loft with its own water view and a private balcony for morning coffee. A tiled shower and vanity serve the main floor, with an incinerating toilet in place of conventional plumbing, no septic system on site. Outside is where this place earns its keep. A cedar pergola and covered pavilion, strung with lights, extend the living space toward the water. Soak in the hot tub while boats and nature slide past. Level lawn to the bank, Adirondack chairs at the edge, and a generous gravel drive with room for boats, trailers, and guests. A rare chance at high-bank waterfront with big-water views and nothing left to do but arrive.
