Welcome to this custom Lake Whatcom home inside Bellingham city limits. The great room features PNW contemporary styling with vaulted tongue-and-groove ceilings and panoramic sliding glass doors that open to one of two view decks. The kitchen offers KitchenAid and Jenn-Air appliances with lake and mountain views from every window. The entire top floor is a primary suite with a spa-inspired bathroom, heated floors, and custom closets and woodwork throughout. Outside, mature landscaping was thoughtfully designed to enhance the home's natural features while providing privacy in the fully fenced yard. Fresh exterior paint, a heat pump/AC with Halo HEPA air filtration, tankless water heater, and newer windows offer added peace of mind. A wired, custom shed and hot tub are included. Spotless inspection available for review. Walk across the street to LakeLine Café and Silver Beach Grocery. A true gem and a must-see in person.
