Property Description
Experience lakeside living at an exceptional scale with this landmark lodge-style estate set on an extraordinary quadruple lot with approximately 180 feet of premier Lake Whatcom waterfront. This timeless retreat blends classic craftsmanship with unrivaled privacy, offering expansive indoor and outdoor living spaces designed to frame sweeping lake and mountain vistas.

A rare twin boathouse anchors the shoreline, complete with two watercraft trolleys, a 3/4 bath, and substantial storage.
