About this home

Nestled in the peaceful Emerald Lake community, this inviting home offers the perfect blend of privacy, comfort, and outdoor recreation. Surrounded by towering evergreens, you'll enjoy a tranquil setting just minutes from Bellingham, with easy access to Emerald Lake, neighborhood trails, and everyday conveniences. Vaulted ceilings and a dramatic wall of windows fill the home with natural light, creating a bright and welcoming atmosphere. Cozy up by the corner fireplace during the winter months, while the heat pump keeps the home cool and comfortable in the summer. Warm hardwood floors flow throughout, and the spacious, newly updated bathroom features a beautifully tiled walk-in shower and radiant floor heat for added comfort. A spiral staircase leads to the loft bedroom, enhancing the home's charming cabin-in-the-woods feel. An additional loft room offers flexible space for a home office, guest accommodations, or extra storage. Step outside to the expansive wraparound deck overlooking the lake—the perfect place to relax, entertain, or unwind. A private hot tub hookup is already in place, and the detached building below has been converted into a sauna, ready to be enjoyed with a little attention to the access path. As a homeowner, you'll also enjoy private beach access to Emerald Lake, making it easy to embrace the best of Pacific Northwest living. Come see this magical cabin in the woods.
