About This Home
Completely re-imagined from the studs up, this Lake Samish-area cottage home blends modern updates with future upside. A 2 bed 1 bath home with all new everything since 2021: plumbing, electrical, insulation, drywall, heating, water heater and windows provide peace of mind, while a brand-new kitchen and bathroom deliver clean, contemporary style. A durable new metal roof and new siding tops it all off. Enjoy sunny days on the front Trex deck and store extra belongings in the basement. Set on a bright, sunny 0.5-acre lot, the property offers peekaboo views of Lake Samish and community lake access just down the road plus miles of mountain biking and hiking trails within walking distance too. The generous lot size has ample room for expansion and creates a rare opportunity to add a second dwelling—potentially a daylight basement home with enhanced lake views. Move-in ready with room to grow, this is a unique chance to enjoy today while planning for tomorrow. Easy access to I-5 and only 15 minutes from Fairhaven! Buyer to verify all information. Seller will pay up to $10K towards closing costs, plus opportunity for rate buydown with preferred lender. Ask listing agent for details.
