YARROW BAY MID-CENTURY

This classic mid-century home has been well cared for and appropriately updated since it was first built in 1953. There is one bedroom on the main floor along with a living room, formal dining room, kitchen, and sitting room (plus one main floor bathroom). Upstairs you will find an office space at the top of the stairs, along with a primary bedroom ensuite with an attached bathroom and walk-in closet. There is also a top floor deck attached to the primary bedroom. There is one additional bedroom on the second floor.

You will be getting the main floor (1,230 sq/ft) and upstairs floor (780 sq/ft) with this house move for a total of 2,010 sq/ft of living space. If you were to add a daylight basement under the house at your new property your total square footage would be approximately 3,200 sq/ft.

Due to the height of this home, it is best suited for waterfront or very near to barge access. Thankfully there are very few wires and obstructions to get it to water on the origin side, so it can be barged to most places around the Puget Sound within the US and beyond. And yes, this house can also be delivered by barge to Canada!
