About this home
Circa 1939 historic Edgemoor mansion capturing the character, craftsmanship and presence of Old Edgemoor, set along one of the neighborhood’s original view streets. Timeless details include beautiful built-ins, crown molding and generous formal and casual living spaces. The residence offers 5 bedrooms and 5 baths, including historic service quarters with a separate staircase, bedroom, bath and sitting area—ideal for guests, extended living or a private retreat. Sweeping views of Bellingham Bay, the San Juan Islands and Salish Sea create an unforgettable marine backdrop. Resort-style grounds feature a swimming pool, hot tub, attached 2-car garage, detached 2-car garage and an extraordinary covered copper-roof rotunda/gazebo. A rare opportunity to enjoy Old Edgemoor charm, commanding views and estate-style living in one of Bellingham’s most treasured neighborhoods. An adjacent fully serviced 1+ acre building lot with water, sewer, power and natural gas may also be available.
Edgemoor, located between Fairhaven and Boulevard Park, is a residential and coastal Bellingham neighborhood with bluff-top views and winding, tree-lined streets. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Fairhaven Village Green and 12th Street, where brick storefronts, indie galleries, and sidewalk patios set a measured pace. Historic Craftsman and Tudor homes mix with mid-century builds, many oriented toward the bay. Village Books anchors the literary pulse, while the Mount Baker Theatre and the Pickford Film Center broaden the cultural calendar nearby. Sidewalks and quiet lanes lead toward shoreline paths and pocket parks. The atmosphere reads polished and calm, with daily life shaped by water, woods, and walkable errands.
