About this home

Private island living at its best on Eliza Island. This high bank, west-facing waterfront cabin is perfectly positioned to capture stunning sunset views over the San Juan Islands. Recently remodeled, this 2-bedroom, 1-bath retreat features an open-concept main living area with floor-to-ceiling windows, warm bamboo flooring, and a durable metal roof—bringing in natural light while complementing the coastal setting. Designed for easy, off-grid living, the property includes a storage shed for all your beach and outdoor gear, with nearby beach access just a short walk or golf cart ride away. Spend your days exploring the shoreline, paddleboarding, beachcombing, or hosting laid-back weekends, then unwind each evening with breathtaking sunsets from your own cabin. Eliza Island is a private island community just 8 miles from Bellingham, offering beach access points, tideland rights, a private airstrip (WA93), park areas, and a full-time caretaker. Primarily a vacation destination, this is a rare opportunity to own a peaceful Pacific Northwest getaway. Ideal for personal use or shared ownership with friends or loved ones.
