Perched near the summit of Cady Mountain, this custom mountain lodge is graced with beautiful views of the Strait of Juan de Fuca and the Olympic Mountains. A private, meandering mountain road leads to a grand entry set among moss-draped boulders and ancient old-growth trees, the island's natural topography preserved in all its quiet majesty. Within, solid wood doors and trim, rich wood ceiling accents, built-in benches, and earth-tone elements lend warmth and timeless character, while a striking indoor/outdoor fireplace glows for both the great room and the deck. Propane-fueled radiant wall heat keeps every season cozy. Upstairs, the loft-style primary retreat overlooks the living area below, its French doors and bright skylights making it feel like sleeping in the forest. Downstairs, the bath indulges with a large soaking tub and towel warmer. Three bedrooms and two baths in all, in a truly private setting. Crowned by an enduring metal roof, the home opens to generous decks and an outdoor fire pit made for fireside evenings and stargazing beneath a canopy of stars, free of light pollution. The detached garage is ideal for a small island vehicle, mountain bikes, and kayaks. Foxes, owls, and ravens are your neighbors here. Moments from Mount Grant Preserve and a wealth of public parks and trails, with Roche Harbor and Friday Harbor a short drive away. A one-of-a-kind sanctuary, whether as a full-time residence or a cherished island retreat.
