Tucked among mature gardens on the 'edge' of Edgemoor, this bright and beautifully maintained home offers a rare combination of privacy, charm, and walkability. Located just steps from Fairhaven Village, the waterfront, and local trails, you'll enjoy easy access to some of Bellingham's most beloved shops, restaurants, and outdoor spaces. Large windows, skylights, and sunny south-facing exposure fill the home with natural light, while newly refinished original oak floors and a cozy gas fireplace create a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The thoughtful single-level layout offers 3 bedrooms, 1.75 baths, and comfortable everyday living. Outside, the grounds are truly something special. Mature Japanese maples, a magnolia tree, flowering gardens, sunny planting beds, and even a row of raspberries create a peaceful setting that has been lovingly cultivated over many years. Whether you're enjoying morning coffee on the spacious deck, picking berries from the garden, or unwinding in the privacy of the fully fenced backyard, the outdoor spaces invite you to slow down and take in the surroundings. A charming garden shed with covered potting area, and additional secure storage shed provide exciting possibilities for hobbies, projects, or creative use. A rare opportunity to enjoy a cottage-like retreat with all the conveniences of Fairhaven just moments away.
