One-of-a-kind Puget Sound waterfront living awaits at this secluded and serene over-water home!
At high tide, the house sits entirely over water on commercial quality piers. At low tide, a few stairs to the beach lead you to prime beach combing or a kayak adventure to Eagle Island. The 1,244 square foot home features approximately 1,100 square feet of deck wrapping around three sides.
Admire views of herons, eagles, seals, and whales, and everything from small boats to large barges. The sunsets over the Olympic Mountains are spectacular. The wraparound deck lets you see the sunrise in the East with your coffee and breakfast and enjoy the sunset in the West with dinner or a nightcap. Notice in the photo above that you don’t see any other homes on the Shoreline. This property’s ultra-rare construction over-water provides for a serene and peaceful living experience unlike a traditional waterfront home.
The architecturally significant home features a main level primary bedroom and three sleeping dormers upstairs. The main living space is an open floor plan that seamlessly combines the remodeled kitchen, dining area, and living room, which features a cozy pellet stove. A substantial remodel was completed within the last five years including beautiful slab countertops in the kitchen. Sold fully furnished for a turn-key home including all furniture, kitchen/dining ware, beds, and linens!
The gently sloping 1.3 acres offers many possibilities for a large shop or ADU. As illustrated in the photo above, the driveway meanders down to the home to the parking area just above a short staircase at the water’s edge. The few stairs lead you down to the wraparound deck with ease. The structures currently on the property (other than the waterfront home) include a well house and two sheds for additional storage, leaving plenty of room for a large barn or shop for your gardening equipment, animals, collector vehicles, or other additional expansion.
Anderson Island is a short ferry ride away from the quaint waterfront village of Steilacoom and twenty minutes from Tacoma. There are innumerable shopping and dining options on the mainland to the North and South of the island. Additionally, there are several hospitals and healthcare amenities nearby including the VA facilities on Joint Base Lewis McChord, located 20 minutes from the Anderson Island Ferry Terminal in Steilacoom. Shown in the photo above is Eagle Island located directly North of the home. Eagle Island is a Marine State Park and is a great place to moor or anchor your boat. Gaze at the splendor of Mount Rainier, relax on the beach, and watch harbor seals close to the shore.
Looking to the West of the home (pictured on the left) is the West side of the Puget Sound. Sail or cruise around the Southern tip of the Key Peninsula to explore the many inlets and bays of the stunningly beautiful Puget Sound waters. Anderson Island is among the safest communities in the greater Puget Sound and offers an executive nine hole golf course, restaurant, and marina at its Riviera Country Club.
