Perched in the heart of South Hill, this beautifully maintained mid-century home blends timeless character with sweeping views of Bellingham Bay and the San Juan Islands. Over $300,000 has been thoughtfully invested in the home's infrastructure and professionally designed landscaping, creating lasting value beyond what meets the eye. While much of the work has been behind the walls and throughout the grounds, the result is an exceptionally well-maintained property ready for years of enjoyments. Inside, the thoughtfully updated kitchen, solid wood windows and doors, and extensive hardwood floors create a warm and inviting atmosphere. The living room is anchored by an updated gas fireplace and flows seamlessly into the dining area, where French doors open to a spacious west-facing deck- an ideal setting for entertaining or enjoying spectacular sunsets over the bay. The lower level offers incredible flexibility with a separate entrance, updated 3/4 bath, 3rd bedroom, laundry room, home gym and large family room. A durable metal roof, generous off-street parking, and the opportunity to convert part of the lower level back into an ADU add to the home's versatility. Ideally situated just moments from Fairhaven, Lowell Elementary, Taylor Dock, Boulevard Park, and mile of scenic trails, this is a rare opportunity to own a thoughtfully stewarded South Hill home where classic mid-centruy design is matche dby an extraordinary commitment to long-term quality.
