About this property

The serene, south facing shores of Vaughn Bay are the breathtaking backdrop of this picturesque European style country estate. Driving through the gate, then the orchard and grounds to the charming brick home, you immediately feel the calming sense that you have ARRIVED. Because this is Vaughn Bay, the protected saltwater is your playground; for kayaking, paddleboarding, waterskiing, or beachcombing on your private tidelands. A wide, gentle path leads you down to a level bulkhead designed for summer afternoons at the water’s edge. Thanks to the location at the mouth of the bay, the views expand to the south as far as the eye can see and to the Olympics in the west. The home was built to be shared and enjoyed! The main level is the ultimate hosting space, centered by a massive living and dining area with a custom wet bar and flagstone patio with the sound, the sun, and the mountains beyond. For the host with the most who values a retreat, the entire upper level is a private primary suite complete with rooftop deck, balcony, and living area. Your guests get the same "getaway" experience in the main level suite and completely detached carriage house above the 3-car garage. Just 20 minutes from the heart of Gig Harbor and hardly more than an hour from Seattle & Bellevue, it's an easy escape to an entirely different world!
