Just like summer in Chicago is worth the frigid winters, summer in the Pacific Northwest really does make up for the rain. On the west side of Puget Sound in Bainbridge Island, Washington is this master craftsman.
Steps from the 118 feet of private beach you can relax on the back deck and enjoy the great outdoors with views of Rolling Bay, the Cascades and Seattle. Staying inside won’t hinder the views though. The walls of windows throughout are made for taking in all the nature, even in the lofted master suite.
With a home made for entertaining, it’s a good thing the island isn’t short of activities. You can stop in the local breweries like Bainbridge Brewing, go for a stroll in the parks and gardens, or get your blood pumping with some cycling and sailing. The two bed, three and a half bath is in a location that won’t disappoint and only an hour from Seattle.
We’ve convinced ourselves that we need this island life, so grab it for $1.5 million before we do.
