Property Description

THIS IS THE ONE YOU'VE BEEN WAITING FOR! A fantastic opportunity to own nearly 10 acres in a highly desirable Mid-county area, just 10 miles from downtown Bellingham's shopping, dining and amenities. Enjoy unobstructed views of Mt. Baker from this level parcel, with the property bordering a massive duck pond and offering a peaceful country setting. 1900's farmhouse with approximately 2,068 sq ft, 4 bedrooms and 1 bath. The home offers two gas fireplaces and a remodeled primary bath with a large jetted tub and cedar accents. A newer 5-year-old roof provides added peace of mind. Outside, enjoy a private fenced yard, mature fruit trees, a sweet front porch, garden space, circular drive and open pastures where hay has historically been produced. The approximately 2,500 sq ft shop/garage, formerly a 4-horse stable, offers incredible space for hobbies, equipment, storage or future possibilities. Valuable Mt. Baker Water Association shares, an existing septic system and R5 zoning add to the property's appeal. With nearly 10 acres, incredible mountain views and so many possibilities, this is your chance to create your own country retreat while still being close to town. Buyer to verify all development and subdivision potential with Whatcom County. Bring your vision and make this special Mid-county property your own — an incredibly rare and affordable opportunity to own this much acreage with stunning Mt. Baker views so close to Bellingham.
