About This Home

Step into the simple elegance and timeless feel of an architecturally-designed home with sweeping territorial views on 15 acres of pasture at the heart of Lopez Island. This two bedroom, two bathroom home glows with carefully curated details, from the chestnut floors to the continental feel of the fixtures and tasteful finishes. Create a quiet refuge in the loft. Watch the birds wing over the wetland and the sun set through the rose-covered trellis framing the deck. The large canvas tents on custom-built platforms and outdoor shower will delight guests. The home is tucked among evergreen and fruiting trees for privacy, with a fenced, drought-hardy garden that bursts into color every summer. The handy shed matches the quality and style of the home and houses toys and tools. A metal roof, Loewen windows/doors, a drip irrigation system, a gas grill hookup, and ipe/ironwood decks make for minimal maintenance. This sweet and sunny home is ready for easy island living and conveniently located just around the corner from island center businesses, the soon-to-open community pool, the school, and just minutes from the village and ferry landing.
