Enjoy an elevated view of Deer Lagoon and the Sound from this South Whidbey gem - a front-row seat to the spring and fall migration stopover for shorebirds and waterfowl, with colorful sunsets and ever-changing skies that never get old. The cook's kitchen impresses with newer KitchenAid appliances, granite countertops, cherry wood cabinets, and a sit-up counter that opens to the great room. New hardwood floors flow across the main level, complemented by new Pella windows and new blinds, while a wood-burning fireplace with brick surround brings warmth to the space. Step out to the resurfaced balcony to relax, BBQ, or simply take in the view. Downstairs, an inviting family room with kitchenette and its own wood-burning insert offers flexible living space - with no loss of that spectacular view. A guest room and full bath comfortably accommodate overflow guests, and a substantial storage and pantry area keeps everything organized. Outside, a patio area is perfect for entertaining, and established garden boxes are ready for the growing season. Added bonus: a 50-year roof was installed in 2023. Minutes to beaches, trails, wineries, shops, restaurants and the ferry. Come experience the Useless Bay lifestyle on South Whidbey.
