Discover a rare piece of legacy Gig Harbor nestled in complete privacy on a plateau above Hale Passage. Available for the first time in over 35 years, this enchanting Cromwell cottage offers a secluded, storybook setting with exceptional south and western Puget Sound views. The home is defined by an organic, timeless warmth featuring exposed beams and walls of glass that frame the water views through commanding evergreens. French doors open to an expansive wrap-around deck, where a boardwalk leads to a special view platform—an unrivaled vantage point for sunsets on the Sound. The primary suite serves as a quiet retreat with full southern exposure and its own private balcony. Complementing the vintage charm is a massive 900 SF detached garage (built in 2008) with over-height ceilings designed for RV or boat storage, plus ample space above. Located at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, sharing a slice of community beach frontage, this is a rare opportunity to own an authentic Pacific Northwest paradise. Cherished for decades, it now invites a new owner to love and enhance this quintessential waterfront lifestyle.
