About This Home

A Hidden Garden Retreat in the Heart of Blaine. Tucked into a quiet neighborhood just blocks from Drayton Harbor, this beautifully maintained Craftsman offers 1,946 sq ft of thoughtfully designed living space with the flexibility today's buyers are searching for. Originally built in 2014, the home was professionally expanded with a permitted addition, increasing the living space from 1,205 to 1,946 sq ft. The addition features a spacious second living area, full bath, and versatile bonus room—ideal for multigenerational living, guests, a home office, or a potential third bedroom. The split-bedroom floor plan provides added privacy, while rich knotty pine woodwork, custom built-ins, wainscoting, and an open-concept layout create warmth and character throughout. Mini-split heating and A/C provide year-round comfort. Step outside to your own private oasis featuring a fully fenced front yard with gated entry, covered front porch, and a beautifully landscaped courtyard with lush gardens, tranquil koi pond, paver patio, fire pit, and balcony overlooking the gardens. Attached garage with workshop offers excellent storage and hobby space, and the pool table is negotiable. Enjoy nearby parks, waterfront views, neighborhood walking trails, downtown Blaine's shops and restaurants, easy I-5 access, and the Canadian border—all with no HOA.
