About this property

Harbor Retreat Waterfront Home

A luxury island retreat, framed by old growth evergreens, set on 200 feet of private waterfront, is the perfect setting for a family vacation, weekend retreat, or relaxing off season getaway with friends.

This charming shingled home features six beautifully appointed and themed bedrooms, utility room, a large family room with full size pool table, game area and both wood and gas fireplaces.

The expansive main living area is a great-room which opens to a deck overlooking the harbor and the changing moods of the water. It features an oversized farmer's dining table, and pine accents with matching European country pine antiques. With it's brick wood-burning fireplace, extensive original art work, and well appointed gourmet kitchen, this is the perfect setting for entertaining.

This gorgeous estate property has nearly one and a half acres with a private sanctuary arbor retreat, private viewing deck, five different types of apple trees, three varieties of cherry and two types of nut trees on the grounds, as well as path to the private beach. The beach is rich with clams and mussels, or perfect for a reflective walk...and you never know what treasure the tide has brought in.

There is even a hot tub for you to warm up after being out on the water or strolling the beach. Come enjoy our wonderful island world.

Beautiful place to unwind
The family had a sweet reunion in this large home. It was equipped with all we needed, especially the peddle boat... That was the biggest hit!

Great Location on Whidbey
7 teens and adults in our party, with more than enough bedrooms! Beautiful view - including from the hot tub - and well-equipped kitchen. Great location, with short drives to downtown Freeland (for grocery shopping, Mexican, and ice cream), Mutiny Bay, Double Bluff Beach, Goss Lake, and the Trustland Trails. And a longer but very reasonable drive to Ebey's Landing. Big screen TV for the Olympics and pool table a definite bonus! And a nice big table for us all, for eating meals and game playing together.

Perfect Place for anFamily Reunion
My husband, 9 year old twins, parents and in laws stayed at this beautiful house for a week and it was magical. The kitchen is well stocked and the dining room table is long and had seating for 10. There are 2 living/family rooms on the top floor and downstairs- each with large sectionals and more than enough seating for 7 people. The sectionals are so comfortable! The upstairs views of the sound are so beautiful. There are 3 bedrooms upstairs. Each bedroom has a king bed and lovely decor. One note- there is just 1 full bathroom on the first floor for these 3 bedrooms. There is another bedroom downstairs w/a king bed plus a kids room (bunk beds - with a double bed in one room) and another speaprate bedroom with perhaps a double bed. This last double bed room has a small full en-suite bathroom (with a fantastic large shower). And then there is another larger bathroom on this downstairs floor. This was perfect for our family! The grandparents had the upstairs bedrooms and bath. And my husband and I were in the downstairs bedrooms with the kids. All the adults had hotel quality king beds and the kids were thrilled with the bunks. The downstairs floor has toys, a tv with a large sectional, pool table and a round glass table for the kids to play at/draw. So, the kids could spread out and in the playroom. And we kept the upstairs family room for adult/family time. Plenty of space to spread out. The long deck has two large patio tables, chaise lounges, and so much seating. Coffee together each morning listening to the bird song and wine/cocktails each night chatting as the sun set on this deck. There is a what looks likes a brand new hot tub which my husband and I relaxed in after long bike rides during our stay. Also, a propane fire pit! It is under the deck for cover. A dual Keurig coffee maker (single serve and a pot), a wine refrigerator, grill, lots of pantry space....the list goes on. We had easy access to the beach (even the grandparents were fine on the stairs down). We took the paddle boat out and saw 4 seals and 2 eagles every day in the bay, herons, sea stars, fish- plus beach combing for sea glass and shells - so much to do. Easy bike rides to Langley and Freeland. Hikes at Ebey Landing (bluff trails), Fort Casey and Deception Pass. At Langley, we saw a humpback whale and numerous Orca whales. Truly, we could not have had a more exquisite stay. Thank you!!!!

Everything worked! Two suggestions below.
A great property, accurately described. Two improvement suggestions are: the flue doesn't draw very well in the fireplace and should be checked. Owner might want to repave driveway (on the hill) as it seems to be falling apart.

Loved Harbor Retreat
Perfect house for a large group. The furniture is different than the photo - it’s a big sectional that could accommodate our entire group and new big tv over the fireplace. We loved it. The deck is fabulous. Nice deck tables that could seat our group overlooking the water. Everyone loved the hot tub and pool table. Gina was great, thank you.
