Newly built! Modern Farmhouse set within an Old-Growth Cedar Sanctuary. Secluded five-acre island retreat just minutes from town borders Camp Orkila, where mornings begin with fresh ocean air and evenings settle in with the chorus of tree frogs and owls. Approximately three sunny acres of open land are curated for organic gardens, animals, and outbuildings, while the remaining acreage preserves the quiet beauty. The newly built 1,342 sq ft, 3-bedroom, 2-bath home blends timeless craftsmanship with modern design. Vaulted ceilings, skylights, and a wraparound covered porch create bright, open living spaces overlooking the land. Interior features include artisanal Spanish tile, walnut countertops, hand-painted botanical details, reclaimed Teredo clam lumber, and island-milled Douglas fir for an authentic Post & Beam look. A 2.8 KW solar electric system is installed and producing. Beyond the main home, a 20' x 20' post-and-beam studio crafted from trees milled on-site, along with a charming 12' x 12' blue pine cabin, offer flexible space for guests, creative use, or income potential. Currently generating $1900/month in rental income through June 1, 2026. Additional features include a two stall stable, sand paddocks, 80' x 130' fenced organic garden, wood-fired cedar hot tub, 20' x 10' RV pad with water, power and septic, Level 2 EV charger, artesian well, plus so much more. Versatile and thoughtfully designed, this Cedar Hill property is a rare island find.
