About this home
Built in 1922, this iconic Fisherman's Craftsman Bungalow has been a quiet fixture of South Hill for more than a century. Freshly painted and thoughtfully preserved, it blends enduring character with craftsmanship that has stood the test of time. From its coveted location just moments from Historic Fairhaven, the Carnegie Library, waterfront trails, cafés, and local boutiques are part of your daily routine. Inside, rich period details create a warmth only a home of this era can offer, while one-level living makes everyday life effortless. A flexible bonus room is perfect for a home office, studio, or reading nook. Beneath the home, a 1,100 sq ft unfinished daylight basement offers abundant space for woodworking, tools, hobbies, and storage, while providing exciting potential for future finished living space. Just off the dining room, a private patio captures views of Bellingham Bay and the San Juan Islands, creating an unforgettable setting for morning coffee, sunset dinners, and summer entertaining. The backyard is a hidden sanctuary with established garden space and a mature apple tree where deer quietly bed down and raise their fawns each spring. Alley access leads to a covered carport, adding everyday convenience while preserving the home's timeless streetscape. This is a home that invites stewardship, offering its next owner the rare privilege of preserving a piece of Bellingham's history while becoming part of its future....
