Description

The Beach House is situated on the west side of Whidbey Island on
its own private beach. Relax in 2800 + square feet of comfort in
this fully equipped and fenced home.

Enjoy water views from every room in the house. A huge deck with
four foot, one-quarter inch safety glass walls is perfect for dinner
and drinks. We are adjacent to almost two miles of Washington State
Beach "Ebey's Reserve" so it feels very private.

A forced air heating system will keep you warm and AC will keep you
cool.

Situated on the Keystone Spit in the middle of Fort Casey State
Park, the Beach House is just four miles from the town of
Coupeville.

The Beach House is only a five minute walk to the Port Townsend
ferry! The ferry lands right at the waterfront of the beautiful town
of Port Townsend, so no car is needed to enjoy the fine restaurants,
shopping, and other amenities available there.

Outdoor activities abound here, with fantastic salmon fishing and
crabbing, wonderful kayaking or world class diving from your
backyard. The public boat launch is less than one minute by car. The
home is bounded by Fort Casey State Park on east, Puget Sound on the
south, and Crockett Lake on the north. Whidbey Island is the home of
Naval Air Station Oak Harbor. The aircraft, ships, subs, and
parachutists can appear at anytime. The aircraft and parachutists
have been seen flying in most areas, including overhead.

This smoke-free home is located in the middle of the main waterfowl
flyway of Whidbey Island. For you runners, the distance around the
lake is 5.6 miles. An excellent training area for both running and
biking. A wise choice for the family that wishes to be close to the
cities, but maintain their privacy.

This home is 90 minutes from Seattle (including Ferry) and 75
minutes from Bellingham by car. The local airport is 15 minutes away
and air taxi can be arranged with Kenmore Air 866 435 9524. The 25
