*** This home is people friendly, and not pet friendly. ***
Just a convenient mile from the ferry landing, this dramatic contemporary home offers wonderful end-of-the-road privacy. Almost every room of this wonderful vacation home on Orcas Island offers spectacular views across West Sound, Shaw Island, and Wasp Passage. The sunsets will take your breath away. This is a spacious, high bank waterfront home, with a fabulous patio and deck stretching across the western side. It is a great space for watching summer boat traffic travel up West Sound to the marina.
A windowed foyer highlights the entry, as does a grand piano. There is a large living/dining room with an open hearth rock fireplace and floor to ceiling windows that bring the outside in. High ceilings and clerestory windows add wonderful volume to the dramatic architecture of the rooms.
There is plenty of space for entertaining in this home. The large kitchen has a great layout with high end appliances and cookware, and it adjoins a family room with another rock fireplace and a breakfast/game table. There is also a back entrance mudroom/laundry and convenience bath.
You will go up a half flight of stairs to the master bedroom with a king bed and luxurious chocolate marble bath with a view. In addition, there is an exit to a private balcony with spiral staircase down to the hot tub on the deck below. Down another half flight of stairs from the main level is a guest bedroom with queen bed as well as a third bedroom that offers twin beds. Both lower level bedrooms also have doors to the deck and hot tub. (Great News! The hot tub is now available April 15th - October 15th!)
The ferry dock is located at Orcas Landing, just one mile away, where you will find a small grocery, post office, and restaurants plus shops. Venture up the road in the opposite direction for about 15 minutes and you will find the village of Eastsound with its fine dining, theater, and shopping.
