A most rare OCEANFRONT home positioned on 3 glorious acres of majestic, peaceful and private WATERFRONT property. Cherished for over 50 years by one family, this magical paradise paints memories that last forever. As you stroll down the private, winding drive you immediately feel as one within the mature gardens of rhododendrons, clematis, giant fir and oak trees that frame this 1938 residence. Rolling lawns, and native grass and camus meadows mix naturally with rocky outcroppings as one walks the grassy paths leading to the sea. The widening seascape draws you to the ever changing OCEAN and magnificent UNOBSTRUCTED VIEWS of Haro Strait and the San Juan islands. Stroll toward the cedar clad CHARACTER BEACH HOUSE and listen to the waves as they greet the shore. This once in a lifetime, world class property, represents the best of history and natural beauty. This is truly a world class property that awaits the next generation of caring stewardship.

Annual property taxes of over $36k! “Unobstructed views” if you’re not in the house. Where are the big windows soaking in that view?
Lot value minus demolition costs. Maybe next year it will drop by another million? Imagine being the family after inheriting this property and trying to sell it since 2023 and you have had to pay $108k in taxes while you keep lowering the price?

Why isn’t this a development opportunity listing?

Would the also have to pay the spec tax if they do not live within the home?
