Diamond in the rough awaits your new ideas and vision. Wonderful five acre parcel with custom home built in 1990 is the epitome of privacy, sanctuary and seclusion. This very quiet, lovely property enjoys abundant light, with a huge variety of bird & mammal species, mature native trees & understory - and so much potential for gardening and cultivation. The home, built by the current owners, was carefully constructed to last centuries, with tile roof, board & batten fir siding, hardwood floors, clear fir trim and many windows to bring in views of the surrounding forest of fir, hemlock, and maple trees, mature rhododendrons, and evergreen huckleberry. Russian masonry fireplace & wood stove keep home cozy in winter. Big pantry in open-concept kitchen, tons of storage and space for projects. Upper level bedrooms have a tree-house feel with generous windows overlooking the ravine. Upper portion of property is level, with room to ramble, enjoy nature or build a lovely garden. Buyer will need to drill new well as current well, drilled in 1981, is over the neighboring property line by approximately 12 feet with no easement agreement. Original home, built prior to main home, is in disrepair & used for materials storage. Please do not attempt to use shared driveway without an accompanying Broker. Vashon Island is a true gem in the center of Puget Sound with a vibrant and eclectic arts, music and cultural scene. Rare opportunity for an affordable retreat in the heart of Puget Sound!
