Hidden oasis that combines the quiet and beauty of nature coupled with a location that is mere minutes to downtown! The moment you drive over the private bridge onto this property you will understand that magic that exists here - a beautiful home surrounded by lovely landscaping and a charming gazebo, with 345' of frontage on Mitchell Creek that gently flows alongside a private pond, all encircled by mature woods. Highlights of the home include main-level living with two living areas (one with a fireplace), a well-equipped kitchen (with granite counters and a peninsula bar) and dining area overlooking the pond, a main-level primary suite and laundry room, Corian counters in the baths, and central air. The full-length deck perches on the edge of the private pond, for the most captivating setting for meals and entertaining outdoors. The pond is stocked with bluegill and pan fish, and when the salmon run in late summer you'll see them swimming upstream in the creek for easy catching. Even though the property is set across the road from the convenience of Costco, you'd never know it with the excellent buffer provided by the woods. Dining, shopping, schools, and beaches are just minutes away from your front door. The next owner of this spectacular property will be sure to feel honored to be the new caretaker of this one-of-a-kind setting. BRAND NEW FURNACE AND A/C IN 2025!
