full-time residence, or legacy holding.
Constructed with full-dimension, locally sourced old-growth Sitka spruce, red cedar, and hemlock, the home reflects a level of craftsmanship and material quality that is increasingly difficult to replicate. The 4-bedroom, 2-bath layout provides comfortable accommodations for extended stays or hosting guests, while the interior balances rustic character with practical updates.
The home is equipped for efficient, independent living with a new Toyo diesel furnace, a Kitchen Queen wood cook stove with integrated water preheating, updated appliances, and a generous pantry. Energy flexibility is a key feature, with a 5.4 kW solar system, backup diesel generator, and connection to AP&T grid power. A roof catchment system with a 3,000-gallon cistern and gravity-fed backup ensures a reliable year-round water supply.
Outdoors, the property offers a highly usable and established setting. Two shops, Chicken house, Barn, 8 x 12 root cellar, large garden/orchard with mature fruit trees and berry bushes. The private beachfront provides immediate access for beachcombing, wildlife viewing, or fishing, while a cedar hot tub is ideally positioned to take in the surrounding natural landscape.
Access is straightforward yet preserves the sense of seclusion, with vehicle access at low tide and a short skiff ride from the Whale Pass dock.
Whale Pass is known for its protected waters, exceptional salmon and halibut fishing, and abundant wildlife, offering a setting that remains largely unchanged and increasingly sought after.
Optional boats, UTVs, and additional personal property may be available, allowing for a turnkey transition.
