About this home

Escape to the serene magic and incomparable beauty of Shaw Island, the quietest treasure in the San Juan Islands. Unlike its busier neighbors, Shaw Island has no vacation rentals or hotels, ensuring an unmatched sense of peace and seclusion—a true rarity. This custom cabin style home, nestled amidst just over 6 acres of cedar and madrone trees offers your own private sanctuary, complete with a tranquil pond perfect for savoring your morning coffee or reflecting on the stillness around you. Step inside to find vaulted wood ceilings and timeless cedar and fir finishes that exude warmth and character. Thoughtfully updated in 2011, the home beautifully blends rustic Pacific Northwest charm with modern comfort. Features include 2 main floor bedrooms both with walk-in closets & ensuite bathrooms, distinctive end grain fir floors, a 3rd loft bedroom, a snug room flex space, and a large unfinished loft space that has potential to add a bonus room/4th bedroom. A kitchen pantry, a full laundry room, and a large utility closet offer tons of storage. Here, life moves at a slower, more mindful pace. If you're dreaming of a private slice of paradise where quiet reigns and the world feels a little more magical, this is your chance to make it yours.
