Welcome to nearly 9 private acres overlooking the Sound, where a European-inspired estate offers over 5,000 SF of secluded living. The main home offers a peaceful sense of space, quiet places to unwind, and a generous primary bedroom that feels like its own haven. From French floor tiles to the Alabaster fireplace in the primary suite, to the custom Eckbank seating with Judd Bay views, this is truly a one of a kind retreat. The detached guest house includes a bedroom, 2 baths, full kitchen and bonus room with a view. The shop and detached garage provide plenty of storage. Surrounded by forest, it feels a world away, yet Eastsound and the ferry are just down the road. Come see where the island life meets the soul of the Pacific Northwest.
