Large Beauty Ideal for Big Family Celebrations

Description from the owner

The grandeur of yesteryear meets the creature comforts of modern day life in this classic foursquare located in downtown Bellingham.

Original, unpainted woodwork and 10 foot ceilings greet you as you walk through the front door. Three striking sets of sliding wooden doors separate the enormous, yet cozy, living room, formal dining room and entryway - ideal for groups wanting ample space to spread out.

A large, wood-burning Chuckanut Sandstone fireplace graces one side of the impressive living room and a generous bayed-window seat, large enough for a nap, frames the other. A comfy couch and leather chairs make for relaxed TV... viewing, catching up with friends and family, or just reading that book you’ve been meaning to get to.

On the rest of the main floor, you’ll find a dining room with seating for 10, a large, fully stocked and beautifully updated kitchen, a half bath and a giant laundry/utility room.

Five beautifully appointed bedrooms await you and your group upstairs. The master bedroom has a king bed and enjoys morning sun and evening shade. There are two rooms overlooking Fouts Park across the street. The other two bedrooms look out into the cedars in the yard. All beds are nicely outfitted with high-quality linens.

The cherry on top is an exquisitely finished 3rd floor family/recroom with poker/game table, games, cable, blu-ray player, ping pong table, toys, books and views of the surrounding city. Great fun for “kids” of all ages.

Outside, you’ll discover flower and vegetable gardens, rhododendrons and lilacs. There are two tree houses, a swing and a play house to occupy your little ones. Of course, the park across the street is a must for everyone.

  A beautiful, restful home for our daughter's wedding weekend

  Left on 08/21/2011 for a stay in August 2011
  
  

  In town for our daughter's wedding with extended family, we really enjoyed our stay at this charming Bellingham madame. She has been beautifully preserved with updates in all the right places--beds, kitchen, bathrooms, but with all the original beauty and craftmanship intact. There are several places for gathering from the large kitchen and dining table and living room with its wonderful window seats to the porch swing and the back decks. We only wish we'd had more time to spend at the house. Thank-you, Sarah, for the lovely experience.

  Great Family Reunion home

  Left on 08/15/2011 for a stay in August 2011
  
  

  The home is a beautifully maintained home, very well appointed and very spacious. I was in the Bellingham area to attend a relative's wedding. Since this would be a 4-generation family reunion of sorts for me, I wanted a house rather than a hotel, where we could be together again as a family. It was so comfortable, and beautiful. There is a park across the street, and plenty of kid space in the yard. The entire 3rd floor is a bonus room for kids or adults when it rains. Can't think of a thing that I would suggest for improvements.
