Colonial Bluff House Above the Sea by AvantStay

Escape to your enchanting waterfront haven on Whidbey Island, perched on a stunning bluff with beach access just 1 mile into town! Unwind in this private retreat, perched high on an 82' bank, overlooking the serene Saratoga Passage. With panoramic Puget Sound views stretching to the majestic Cascade Mountains, this coastal-flair Colonial home welcomes you with open arms.

Step into a light-filled haven where every glance unveils breathtaking scenery. The open layout seamlessly connects the living, dining, and primary suite to the outdoors. French doors lead to an expansive deck and lush grounds, setting the stage for memorable gatherings with friends. Whether you're basking in natural light in the kitchen, gazing through abundant view windows, or savoring the spectacle of passing boats and occasional whales, this is a haven of relaxation.

Spend leisurely hours on your private deck and lawn, surrounded by pristine landscaping. Inside, large windows frame the ever-changing Sound. Langley's charms await nearby – indulge in beaches, art stores, bookshops, and local dining. Venture further to explore the full allure of Whidbey Island.

Rest comes easy in the main house's 2 large bedrooms with king beds, and a third bedroom boasting 2 xl twin beds. Need more space? Discover extra daybeds, including one in the private den and another upstairs. An inflatable queen bed ensures everyone's comfort. Stay connected with Wi-Fi and enjoy entertainment on 5 TVs with streaming services.

At approximately 2900 sq ft, the Colonial beauty accommodates 6 guests, offering ample room to unwind. The double garage hosts a game room, warmed by a remote-lit propane stove, home to card games and ping pong battles.

Lewis John Carlino, famed screenwriter, once called this retreat home, finding inspiration in the panoramic scenes. Just as he penned masterpieces like "The Great Santini" and "I Never Promised You a Rose Garden," let this haven kindle your own creativity and awe, all while basking in the Puget Sound's embrace. Your story begins here.

Discover the allure of Whidbey Island, where tranquility meets captivating landscapes. Embraced by the Puget Sound, this paradise invites group travelers to unwind on sandy shores and explore nature's wonders. Quaint villages add to the island's charm, each with a unique character.
