About this home
Step into a contemporary sanctuary where modern design meets the breathtaking backdrop of Mt. Baker and Birch Bay. This isn’t just a home; it’s a masterclass in open-concept living, defined by soaring ceilings, wide-plank white oak flooring, and massive sliding glass doors that blur the line between the sophisticated interior and the Pacific Northwest landscape. Whether you're hosting a dinner party or enjoying a quiet evening, the flow to the outdoor retreat is effortless. Outside, you’ll find a space designed for year-round enjoyment, complete with overhead heating, gas fire pit, and 7-person hot tub positioned perfectly for stargazing. Retreat to a primary suite featuring a cozy pass-thru fireplace and direct deck access for waking up to those incredible water and mountain views. The lower level offers versatility, functioning as a fully equipped guest wing or ADU with its own separate entry, 2 bedrooms, full kitchen & laundry, w/a dedicated office space. Equipped with efficient mini-split climate control, smart home integration, and a spacious three-car garage, every detail has been handled. You’ll be living in a premier gated community that feels like a permanent vacation, offering access to private golf, a marina, beaches, pickleball courts, and a community pool. Imagine hopping in your golf cart to play a quick 9 holes or taking your boat out for a sunset cruise- it is the ultimate vacation lifestyle!
Birch Bay Village, located between Birch Bay Drive and the Semiahmoo Bay shoreline, is a gated and waterfront Birch Bay neighborhood with private marina slips and golf-course greens. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Birch Bay Village Marina and clubhouse area, where docks, cart paths, and a low-key social calendar set the pace. Architecture leans toward Northwest contemporary and well-kept single-family homes, many oriented to water or fairway views. Days track with boating, walking loops, and beachcombing along the bay. For local flavor, The C Shop, Beach Cat Brewing, and Blaine Performing Arts Center serve as familiar gathering points beyond the gates.
