It does not get more Bainbridge Island than this! For decades, this iconic Shingle Style home & waterfront setting has been admired by islanders and visitors arriving to the island by ferry, w/ the boats gliding by day & night. Cherished by its original owners and never before offered for sale, this opportunity presents a remarkable piece of the island's story. Set on a rare and substantial double lot, 150 feet of bulkheaded beachfront & owned tidelands unfold along the water's edge. Beautifully established grounds create a sense of privacy while keeping the Sound always in view. From the front door, the eye is drawn straight to the water, where Seattle's city lights twinkle after dark and Mount Rainier anchors the horizon. Designed around its extraordinary setting, the home offers primarily single-level living w/ a gracious floorplan, vaulted ceilings, multiple gathering spaces, intricate wood and millwork, custom built-ins, and warm natural accents. The expansive primary suite opens to the beachside brick patio and features a fireplace, water & city views, & a restorative ensuite bath w/ huge WIC. A dedicated office connects directly to the suite, while two additional upstairs bedrooms enjoy private view balconies. Outside, a pickleball court sits near the water, serving as a fitting amenity on the island where the game was born. A detached garage offers storage, workshop space, and unfinished area above. Just minutes from Winslow, the ferry, Prichard Park, & nearby trails.
