At 26-feet wide, this is a rare “narrow” house that can fit along significantly more roadways than usual due to width constraints. The house has had some great aesthetic upgrades over the years, including a roomy galley style kitchen with lots of storage and full height cabinets. The main living areas of the house total 1,060 sq/ft, and the unfinished garage adds an additional 390 sq/ft that could be converted to usable space as well, with a total of 1,450 sq/ft all on one floor.

One suggestion we often give is to consider a full daylight basement or lower floor once the house is delivered to your site, which would double your 1,450 sq/ft house to as much as 2,900 sq/ft total!

The three bedrooms allow for a family with kids, or for flexible space for office & guest bedroom. There is a small powder room that was added to the primary bedroom for convenience in the last renovation.

This is a well-built, functional, and affordable home for someone to make their own! The main rooms have been upgraded to an efficient, multi-head mini-split heat pump system (which allows both heating and cooling). This kind of heating/cooling is considered one of the most efficient from an operations standpoint, and since it runs on electricity it works in more remote locations that don’t have gas service available.

There is also a whole-house instant hot water system (typical costs between $2,000 and $3,500 when including install costs).

This classic MCM (mid-century modern) home has beautifully finishes & updates with Brazilian hardwood floors in the main living areas, a classic but modern (upgraded) 1950s-style kitchen, high-quality windows and MCM-style oversized blinds, an open-style living room and kitchen area, and generous bedroom sizes with cedar-lined closets and a large attached garage.

The main living area is 1,490 sq/ft, and the attached garage adds 480 sq/ft for a total of 1,970 sq/ft for the moved portion of the house. It had a daylight basement (1,250 sq/ft), making it a total of 2,740 sq/ft or as much as 3,944 sq/ft if you include the garage and build a complete lower floor under the moved house! Size is very flexible with your final creation (feel free to ask about your options).

This home has a short timeline of availability, but it’s worth the effort to inquire and put in an immediate offer, as this house can be moved to storage if necessary due to the impending demolition date. But act quickly or it may be gone soon…

Contact our office and reach out to Jeff to ask any questions you may have. This is a beautiful and well-built home with significant upgrades and renovations throughout!

This is an AMAZING small home that is perfect for an island getaway or your 1st-time affordable home. The previous owners did a full, top-to-bottom renovation about 17-years ago, including replacing most of the windows with Milgard double-pane thermal windows, and installing Saratoga Heart Pine floors throughout.

NOTE: The Saratoga Heart Pine floors are ¾ inch solid plank from a mill on the east coast. It is known for its durability and unique character.

Home Layout & Design

The home features a true open plan layout, and has many modern amenities, including an IKEA kitchen with glass front cabinets and a built-in microwave. For heat there is a modern convection radiator in the bedroom and a custom gas stove in the living room which has won awards for efficiency. The stove is surrounded by glass on three sides and originally cost over $3,500 and is included with the moved home.

This house, other than expected wear-and-tear, is practically “turnkey” once it is delivered to your property and connected to utilities.

Adding Value to Your Home

At under 1,000 sqft, it can be used in most jurisdictions as a “Detached Accessory Dwelling Unit (DADU)” while still maintaining another, larger home on your property. If you were to decide to put it on a full-height daylight basement (rather than a 4-foot crawlspace) you could enjoy the benefits of a true primary residence by adding additional bedrooms downstairs, or even using it as a rental to help pay for your mortgage…

NOTE: In this configuration, your total square footage would be over 1,600 sq/ft once you build out your daylight basement!

This is an absolutely charming, brightly colored beach cottage which may be perfect for your lot!

Whether you keep it small & modest or have us lift it up high enough to become a *carriage house* over a garage, you will be able to continue this house’s colorful history with a long, new chapter written about your own family’s time with this small treasure.

The house is a 2-bedroom, 1-bath cabin, but built stoutly with 2×8 floor joists on 24-inch centers (pretty solid for a 657 sq/ft cabin).

It has a charming galley style kitchen, a small pantry, and an enclosed porch with room for a washer/dryer, and a single bathroom.

THIS LOVELY HOUSE HAS BEEN MOVED BEFORE!!

One of the previous owners of this cottage, author, Sue Mills, published a book called “The Divine Mirror of Loneliness,” in which she writes about Berte Olson from Stavanger, Norway, who’s family became one of the early homesteaders in the area where the cottage is now. Berte—who lived in the house on Fidalgo Island just north of Whidbey—became the first female ferryboat captain in the State of Washington in the early 1900s before the Deception Pass Bridge was built.

Berte’s ferry service business was all but quashed once the bridge opened. However, she showed her salt by moving the house *herself* by barge & tug to where the house is presently located on Whidbey Island, giving it to her sister to live in for the rest of her life. Berte then moved to the Hood Canal and then set up a new ferryboat service down there!

This house is already popular and is likely to find its “house rescuers” very quickly. Don’t hesitate to contact our office ASAP if you wish to learn more!
