Showcasing a fabulous 1,730-square-foot layout that includes 3 bedrooms, 1.5 baths, and dreamy living spaces, this home offers easy one-level living.

Built with love from the ground up, the seller’s father built this beach house back in 1986, and the fireplace is actually made from bricks from the fireplace of the old cabin that used to be on the property! The seller’s dad cleaned each brick, and when they moved into the finished home, they converted the new fireplace to propane. The same careful consideration was given to each and every detail of this residence, and the rockery was even brought in by barge.

“You can see the ramp that went down to the water from the garage where Dad stored his boat,” shared the seller. “We used to have a buoy out in the water as our neighbors do now. It is a great place for kayaking and boating, putting out crab and shrimp pots, fishing and clam digging, as well as sitting on the deck enjoying the spectacular sunsets year round which set over the Olympic mountains in the summer and directly across in the winter. We love to watch the sea life, Orca whales, seals, geese and ducks as well as bald eagles. We never tire of watching the tides go in and out and enjoying the peace and solace of living so close to the water.”

Enjoy the same spectacular views from indoors! In the main living room, soaring ceilings with beautifully built beams and the classic brick fireplace create a lodge-inspired feel, and whether you’re hosting a crowd for a holiday gathering or just relaxing and enjoying the peace and quiet, this inviting haven is ready for it all! Warm light cascades in through huge windows that also offer extraordinary views of the water.

The open-concept layout flows right into the updated kitchen, a stylish modern space straight from the pages of a home decor magazine! Huge counters and generous, handsome cabinetry promise ultimate efficiency, while the potential for bar-style seating and an adjacent dining area are ready for entertaining.

This home’s generous 3 bedrooms conveniently includes 2 master bedrooms, perfect for hosting overnight guests! Have an extra room or two? Consider transforming it into a play area, hobby space, office, or fitness center!

Living on Fox Island

At 154 Brick Kiln Rd Fox Island, WA 98333, you’re just a quick 2-minute drive to the Fox Island Bridge, making it easy to connect to Gig Harbor and beyond. “There are many wonderful things about living on Fox Island,” says the seller. “One of the most unique is the clay babies that can be found when you walk the beach. Fox Island is one of the few spots where these occur due to the natural clay deposits on the island, which is also why a brick kiln was built on this area of the island.” From beach combing and sightseeing to water sports like kayaking, boating, and paddle boarding, spending time outdoors and appreciating the natural scenery are all popular activities for Fox Island residents!
