Overview
Set on a generously sized fenced lot of approximately 0.52 acres (about 2104 square meters), this distinctive log-cabin-style home offers a unique blend of rustic charm and modern updates. The two-story residence spans approximately 1,737 square feet (around 161 square meters), presenting an inviting lifestyle framed by nature and privacy.
The home’s original log construction has been carefully preserved and enhanced through professional restoration and re-chinking, which maintain its classic cabin character while ensuring durability. Recent infrastructure improvements include a new roof and gutters installed in 2025, alongside a moisture barrier and sump pump in the crawl space, offering peace of mind to future owners.
Inside, the residence features two bedrooms and nearly two bathrooms, thoughtfully renovated to provide contemporary comfort without sacrificing the home’s warm aesthetic. Entirely refreshed flooring throughout complements the updated bathrooms, and modern conveniences such as a new forced-air furnace and high-end Bosch and GE Profile appliances installed in 2024 further elevate the home’s functionality. The five-year-old tankless water heater adds efficiency and reliability to the home’s systems.
Living spaces are enhanced by vaulted ceilings, a loft area, and a pellet stove fireplace that accentuates the cozy atmosphere. Practical interior features include dual-pane storm windows, ceiling fans, and walk-in closets, contributing both to comfort and energy efficiency. The flooring combines vinyl plank and carpet, balancing style and practicality.
The property’s outdoor amenities build on its appeal with a newer six-foot cedar fence that encloses the yard, providing privacy and space for various outdoor activities. Additional highlights include a deck, cable TV availability, gas access, high-speed internet connectivity, outbuildings, and RV parking—catering to a range of hobbies, storage needs, or expansion possibilities. Particularly notable is the provision of shop plans with the sale, offering a strong incentive for buyers interested in creating workspace or additional storage.
Situated in the Nooksack Valley area within Whatcom County, the home benefits from proximity to local schools — Sumas Elementary, Nooksack Valley Middle, and Nooksack Valley High — and access to public sewer and water services. This residence is well-suited for buyers looking for a peaceful retreat with room to grow, combining the benefits of rural living with neighborhood conveniences.
