About This Property

Live the dream on the shores of Lake Samish!! First time on the market since 1966 is this sun drenched lake view home ready for its next chapter. Large living room, kitchen, full bath and bedroom on the main floor with oversized windows and a walk out to the deck. Upstairs are two more lakeview bedrooms, a full bath and bonus craft room that could be converted to a 4th bedroom. Both bedrooms have sliders leading to the upstairs deck. Enjoy the lake lifestyle on the big deck, yard and bulkhead. Then go out the private dock to fish, swim or boat. This is on a small lane off E. Lk. Samish rd shared by only 5 homes. Last lot is a rarely used rec. lot. Plenty of off street parking and many outbuildings for toys. Fast 10 minute drive to Fairhaven
