Nestled near one of the North Coast’s most popular spots to fish, float, and swim, this home offers the perfect blend of outdoor adventure and peaceful retreat without having to leave your backyard!Inside, cathedral ceilings with exposed wood beams and generous natural light create a warm and inviting atmosphere. Easy main floor living with room for guests on the second floor gives everyone a bright space with a view. With gated entry, the property is surrounded by alders, bamboo, rhododendrons, and mature fruit trees, providing privacy, panoramic natural views, and a sense of seclusion.

Underground wiring was installed from the highway to the house with a conduit in place for addition of a generator. The garage has been converted into a woodwork shop, and the carport was enclosed to form an oversized garage—ideal for storing vehicles, kayaks, paddleboards, or other coastal toys. There are new heat pumps inside both the house and the garage!
