Charming waterfront 4 br gated estate on 8 acres with private beach and buoy. | House in Friday Harbor
4 Bedroom House in Friday Harbor
Private beach , hot tub, view of Mount Baker and Griffin Bay, across the street from Golf and Tennis, and even a mooring buoy!
Before San Juan Island was discovered as a travel destination, Friday Harbor was a cluster of modest homes on a few central streets. When the commercial area began to expand, two historic homes were moved south of town onto this beautiful stretch of Griffin Bay waterfront. Creatively connected by a new central living space, these historic structures now form the opposing wings of a delightful island residence.
The property is located behind a gated entry, so it"s extremely private, however the golf club and tennis courts (open to the public and you can use our rackets) are just across the road, and town amenities are just 3 miles away.
The landscape surrounding the home is simply gorgeous, offering 8 sunny acres of garden, grassy clearings with a badminton and croquet set you can use, ponds to explore, and a hot tub under a starlit sky.
Then there is the beach! Just wander down the pathway at the shoreline to find your own sheltered pebbled cove, complete with driftwood logs. tide pools, and a dead ahead view of Mount Baker. This is where you will likely spend many hours in quiet contemplation and enjoying picnics.This beautiful waterfront is also a great spot for launching kayaks and there is even a buoy
for your use. 4 sit on kayaks are available May 1- Sept 30. With a boat launch a few miles away, its easy to either bring your boat or rent one from town for exploring or crabbing.
Those seeking to relive carefree childhood summers will love this vacation home. The older sections of the residence create a sensation of remembrance. One wing rambles through a small office into a master bedroom with a king size bed, en-suite bathroom, and large walk-in closet. Above the office is a semi-open loft with two twin beds where children and teens can snuggle up. NOTE THERE ARE LOW CEILINGS AND NON CONFORMING STAIRS AND RAILINGS IN THIS AREA, WHICH CAN BE DANGEROUS FOR SMALL CHILDREN.
The kitchen with breakfast nook, sitting area, 1/2 bath and laundry room are on the main level of the second wing. Upstairs are two additional bedrooms, one with a queen bed plus futon, and the second one with a double bed and one twin bed. A second bathroom with tub/shower is also on the upper level.
The two older wings are separated by the living and formal dining room.
The waterside windows frame incredible views of the bay, islands, gorgeous sunrises, and Mount Baker. Stretching across the entire front and side of the home is an inviting deck containing lounge and dining furniture, and a propane barbecue.
The home is comfortable, attractive, and unpretentious. The atmosphere is a small step back in time, a place that guests of all ages will enjoy. Wade at the shore, play lawn games, or simply enjoy the wildlife that visits daily. Deer, otters ,eagles, seals are a regular sight, and spring and summer brings Orcas sometimes in front of the property.
Please note, there are ponds, cliffs,stairs, hot tub and a loft which can be dangerous to small children. Immediate supervision is required at all times.
This is truly one of the premier properties on San Juan Island. Come make your own island memories at Griffin Bay Beach: we expect you will join the many that return every year.
