The Rosebud Cottage ~ Originally built in 1938 by the Torvanger family, this storybook cottage has been expanded and extensively updated in 2024 while preserving its original soul. Thoughtful craftsmanship is evident throughout, with custom millwork, cedar elements milled from the property, and built-ins, a level of detail rarely found at this scale. Infrastructure updates include new electrical, plumbing, roof, decking, windows, insulation, foundation, and ducted heat pump for heating and cooling. The single-level floorplan lives comfortably, with a spacious primary suite offering custom built-ins, garden views, a private deck, and a spa-inspired bath with soaking tub. A second bedroom with a large walk-in closet works equally well as an office. The kitchen opens to a covered, heated deck for three-season living, and features vaulted ceilings, quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, GE Caf appliances, and Glasshouse Studio pendants. Outside, a rare level half-acre offers exceptional usability for gardening, play, and outdoor living, with established gardens, raised vegetable beds, mature heirloom fruit trees, large lawn, hammock nook, fire-pit area, and a seasonal pond beneath a canopy of mature firs. Located in the historic Port Madison neighborhood, in a setting that feels private, quiet, and removed, yet less than 15 minutes from the ferry. This a rare opportunity to own a classic Bainbridge Island cottage with the benefit of a complete, modern overhaul.
