Some mornings, the orcas announce themselves before you've had your first cup of coffee. Set on 1.1 manicured acres of high-bank waterfront in Kingston, this one-story home with a detached ADU overlooks Apple Tree Cove, the Cascade Mountains, ferries, sailboats, and an endless parade of marine life moving through the frame all day long. Inside the main home, cathedral pine ceilings set the tone. The open-concept great room flows into a large kitchen, anchored by a granite island with a gas cooktop, bar seating for four, updated cabinetry, mosaic tile backsplash, and stainless appliances, all oriented toward the water views. Doors open to the Sound from both the living area and the primary suite, which includes an en-suite bath and large walk-in closet. Between the two houses, you’ll find three bedrooms, four bathrooms and water views from almost every living space. Outside you’ll find a covered deck with premium mahogany decking, a built-in outdoor kitchen with gas grill and fireplace for year round entertaining. Step down off the deck into an expansive lawn that leads straight out to stunning views beyond. Established gardens, curated landscaping, and a pondless water feature complete the grounds. A detached ADU on its own independent septic, a 672 SF two-car garage with dual EV charging, private well, pump house, and garden shed. Beach access one minute away. Kingston ferry nearby. Seattle in under an hour. A lot of life happens here. Come live yours.
