Property description

We have to sell our dream farm built over the past 17 years. It is located only 15 minutes from Bellingham, yet we are tucked back on a dead end road. We are close to Mt. Baker for skiing and hiking, 10 minutes to public access equestrian trails. We have the best water in the county from a well 200 feet below the Nooksac river managed by the Mt Baker water association. The round house is one of a kind with radiant floor heat, a heat pump, open floor plan and views of Sumas mountain. It also has artistic custom touches like a custom metal bamboo railing in the loft, new hardwood floors, cherry cabinets and granite counter tops. There is a master bedroom with a walk in closet, a hot tub and sauna and covered outdoor seating. The house and barn are secluded from any neighbor with adjoining conservation land and a trail outside the house with unlimited riding on Stewart mountain (with permit and permission). The neighbors have created a safe space for the wildlife. This is a great place to bird watch. It's a lovely quiet spot.

We have two bedrooms and two bathrooms with beautiful hardwood floors and bamboo floors in loft. There is radiant floor heat with ecological propane boiler system and two other sources of heat, a heat pump and a propane stove. Custom handmade wood and metal railings. Giant windows to see the garden, horses and mountain. The yurt is a lovely space to create and live. Tall 14 foot ceilings, skylight and lovely patio and decks. We have an organic fruit orchard producing giant pears and apples (it must be the horse manure.) and lovely flowers-peonies, lavender, hollyhock of all colors and hearty fuchsia. We have a fig tree, elderberries, raspberries, mulberry, linden and numerous others. The trail to endless logging roads and other trails is right outside the back door.

Giant barn (36 feet by 60 feet) which was custom built with efficiency studio inside, two bathrooms and a the whole upstairs unfinished but stubbed out for appliances. Four large stalls 12 by 12 and extra tall ceilings can easily house large horses. Covered manure pile, covered tractor and bedding area in back and large hay storage. Large outdoor arena with excellent footing (180 by 80) and two large dry paddocks that are not muddy in the winter due to all the fill (gravel, sand, road fabric and hogfuel) making the best turn out in the area year round.
