About this property.
Rare opportunity to create a one of a kind property on nearly an acre on a quiet, dead end street, offering sweeping water views and direct privacy backing to public land. The home is positioned on a dramatic, sloping site that enhances both outlook and seclusion, while naturally preserving sightlines and protecting the surrounding landscape. The existing residence is ready for a comprehensive renovation or reimagining, presenting an ideal canvas for builders, investors, or end-users with vision. While a portion of the lot is steep, the usable footprint offers ample space to design a custom view home that maximizes light, views, and indoor-outdoor connection. The lower level features a fully separate ADU with 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom, thoughtfully remodeled in 2021, perfect for rental income, guest quarters, or extended living during renovation. With captivating water views, a private natural setting, and significant upside potential, this is a rare opportunity to bring a truly special property to life.
