Whidbey Island Mid-Century Modern Waterfront Escape - JAW DROPPING VIEWS!!

A lovingly restored classic Mid-century Modern Waterfront home. The nearly 270 degree westside view spans Mt. Rainier, downtown Seattle, the Olympics, Port Townsend, and the San Juan islands. Sitting on nearly an acre with privacy so difficult to find, this home features a circular driveway, full length deck, master suite with its own private deck, a chef's kitchen with high end appliances, and close proximity to all that Whidbey Island has to offer.

Our place feels like it's a world away, yet it's only a short 90 minute jaunt from Seattle. Located in the Olympic rain shadow, our winter days are warmer / dryer and summer days are cooler than Seattle.

The house has been a labor of love for our family as we have been carefully restoring / preserving it to its original 1960s mid-century modern vintage complete with modern finishes / creature comforts - all with a focus on reuse and sustainability.

Take in the views from the full size deck that extends the length of the house and is equipped with HAY Palissade deck chairs, a Solo Stove fire pit, a Sonos Move, alfresco dining setup, and a Pawleys Island cotton rope hammock - all capped by a spectacular PNW native Madrona tree.

The great room is replete with carefully curated mid century modern touches, a fully stocked chef's kitchen with high end appliances, a Nespresso machine, board games, a deep sectional couch, an Apple TV, a Sonos audio setup, amazon Alexas, and smart lighting controlled via the provided iPad.

The spa-like master bedroom ensuite has a medium firm foam mattress king size bed, Pendleton throws, a wall of closets, soft linen sheets, and opens to its own private deck. The Master Bedroom now has a brand new, METICULOUSLY REMODELED bathroom with a vanity, and DUAL SHOWERS. Be one of the first to experience it!

Be one of the first to experience the RECENTLY REMODELED second bathroom. Deep water tub, dual floating vanity, Hansgrohe fixtures all interspersed with subway and hex tile.

The second bathroom has a deep water tub, dual floating vanity, Hansgrohe fixtures all interspersed with subway and hex tile.

The green spaces on three sides of the property are perfect for bocce ball, frisbee, kicking a soccer ball around, badminton, or for using the outdoor ping pong table. Need a bigger playground - walk down the street to take steps to the beach.

Tesla (or other EV) owner? Our place has a Level 2 EV Charger for you to plug in.

We've obsessed over all the details! Wanderlust has taken us to over 25 different countries across 5 continents. We have stayed in hundreds of hotels, airbnbs, guests houses - and have drawn inspiration from all of them in getting our place ready for all of you to experience.

Amazing Family Vacation on Whidbey
This Whidbey Island home is an impeccable location for a family vacation. Amazing access to a private beach on the Admiralty Inlet with clear views of the Olympic mountains. The home is well equipped for eating in, enjoying a movie night, playing board games, and just soaking in the views. We appreciated the EV charging capability and the yard space for our dog while visiting. The location is well positioned to visit Langley, the Meerkerk gardens, wineries and Coupeville! We had great communication from the hosts and home was better than advertised. We will be returning soon!

Storm was a problem
We thought the house and hosts were great. A very bad storm prevented us from fully enjoying our stay. When the power went out we had to leave a day earlier than planned. A fair review is impossible given the unlucky circumstances.

Winter visit
Fabulous view, and great location near Langley and South Whidbey Park (good birding). One large master room with walk-in shower; two small bedrooms that share a bath. Very well-stocked kitchen. No stairs. Three of us in our late 70s stayed here. We had some trouble with the depth and softness of couches and the multiple remotes that control heat, light, and t.v. We wished the fireplace wasn't off bounds on our chilly, rainy stay. The owners are very receptive, and quick to respond and accept suggestions.

Beautiful Puget Sound Views
The owner was very responsive to few questions we had and was helpful. The house is situated in a quiet neighbor hood with spectacular views of the Sound and the Olympics with a wonderful deck to sit and watch the ships go by and the lovely sunsets. The bathrooms and kitchen are updated with beautiful finishes. The master bedroom is large and the other bedrooms had plenty of room. The house is in a convenient location to beaches, to public gardens, grocery stores and Langley. It was easy to get on the highway and spend a day in Deception Pass. This is our first stay in this property but our third stay on Whidbey Island.

Amazing deck and view- beautiful home on Whidbey Island
We had a wonderful stay at this lovely home... after a day of exploring and hiking on the island, we would look forward to relaxing on the deck, watching the sunsets and enjoying our dinner on the water. Beautiful, clean, modern home in quiet neighborhood. Central location to everything. Owners very responsive. Highly recommend! We will be back!

Simply put . . . Heaven
This home is so well appointed, comfortable, convenient and just plain gorgeous. We were so bummed that we were only able to stay there for two days this time. But we enjoyed every second that we spent sitting on the deck watching the water and the eagles who visited the backyard. The owners were so lovely and were easy to reach with any questions. The bed was comfortable and the newly-remodeled master shower is awesome! If I had to make any suggestion at all, it would be to please install screens on the master bedroom window and slider so that we could leave those open and enjoy the beautiful ocean air. Thank you so much for a great getaway - we can't wait to come back to Whidbey & Chill!

Very Enjoyable Stay
The home has amazing views of the water, the mountains and receives daily visits from a group of bald eagles. It is in a good location to take advantage of the many hikes and beach walks the island offers. Overall a very positive and enjoyable stay. No issues or concerns to report and the hosts were available and responsive to our questions.

Lovely home with incredible views
This home is situated in a nice and quiet neighborhood. Whidbey Island is small enough that everything (i.e. tourist destinations, grocery stores, coffee shops, and good restaurants) was a quick drive from the house. The house was very clean; the views from the kitchen windows, living room, and deck were out of this world. The solo stove on the deck allowed us to hang out there even when it was a little chilly. Hosts were kind and very responsive to text messages. We really appreciate their thoughtful renovations to this gem of a house. The only thing that didn't hit a "10" was that the bed was extra firm (in our opinion) but that would not stop us from coming back here. Truly beautiful.

Gorgeous waterfront rental!
My family and I loved this house! It had such a cute mid-century modern, beachy decor and was very clean and welcoming. We utilized the very convenient beach access down the road. All the neighbors that we stopped and talked with were very friendly. The house had all the amenities you could ask for. The only thing that you should be aware is that the master bedroom has an attached bathroom this is fairly open to the sleeping area, which would be ok for a couple but me and my mom shared that room so we had to coordinate showers and bathroom time. Our absolute favorite part about the house was watching the cruise ships and barges go by. We honestly didn’t want to leave!! We would definitely stay here again :)

Great property in a great location. Property was well maintained and had everything necessary (except maybe a regular coffee machine). Kitchen was well stocked and there was plenty to do there with nice A/V equipment and puzzles and games provided. The water view was excellent - worth the drive to get out of downtown Seattle for a couple of days. Very relaxing and will come back if vacationing in the area again.
