Property Description
Charming, tastefully updated 1918 farmhouse set on nearly an acre, just minutes from both Bellingham and Ferndale. Renovated in 2021, this light-filled home blends character with modern comfort, featuring an open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area with quartz countertops, a breakfast bar, and oversized windows that fill the home with natural light. The spacious main-floor primary bedroom offers ample storage, while two inviting upstairs bedrooms with classic dormer windows share a full bath. The partially finished lower level, complete with its own exterior entrance, adds two finished bonus rooms of flexible space. Step outside to enjoy the private back deck overlooking the level, fenced yard with room to garden, play, or let pets roam. There's a shop, RV parking in both the driveway and through the rear gate, plus mature pear and apple trees. If you're looking for the charm of a classic farmhouse with modern, intuitive updates, this is a place you'll be proud to call home!
