Wake up to the sound of waves and step outside to your own private access to the beach steps away. This classic beach cottage is a perfect escape - offering a blend of laid-back coastal charm, outdoor entertainment, and coastal living. Spend your mornings on the front deck with a cup of coffee, watching the world slowly wake up. When you're ready for the beach, your private access puts you there in moments: no crowds, no parking lots, just sand and surf. After a sun-soaked day, rinse off in the outdoor shower before gathering in the expansive backyard, perfect for barbecues, lawn games, or evenings under the sun. Then treat yourself to a session in the outdoor dry sauna. As the evening winds down, pull a chair on the front deck and soak up the ocean air. An outdoor shed allows you to store your beach accessories. The main floor has an expansive kitchen/dining area for gathering with friends, a cozy living room, timber-framed ceilings, and a modern freestanding stove for chilly nights. The office is a flex room with a full bath steps away. Upstairs has vaulted ceilings and two sizable bedrooms, with one with a deck & view of the Sound and Olympics, while the other views protected wetlands-a popular income-producing vacation rental. Come experience the beach and see what the Whidbey lifestyle is all about.
