About this property

Experience the beauty and serenity of this 17.84 acre sylvan retreat on idyllic Waldron Island. This exceptional property features mature evergreen forest with a rich diversity of native plants and birds, a deep freshwater pond, trails that lead to several clearings, a drilled well for potable water, and a small cabin and detached workshop/guest cabin powered by an on-site solar system. The small one-room cabin has a small kitchen, sleeping loft, wood stove and outdoor shower, and occupies a sunny clearing within close proximity to the Mountain Road. It is well-suited for simple cabin life or a good base from which to plan and build a more substantial year-round cabin or home. The nearly level property is centrally-located with easy access to the island's large nature preserves, and served by both a combination of San Juan County and community-managed dirt roads. Waldron is a remote off-grid island in the San Juan Islands accessible by private boat or water taxi. The year-round community is supported by the Waldron School, an historic one-room schoolhouse on the National Register of Historic Places, a U.S. post office, a County-maintained dock, privately-maintained grass airstrip, a number of small organic farms that provide island residents with seasonal produce, and a high level of community participation in Waldron non-profit organizations. If a quiet island retreat in the San Juan Islands resonates with you, this large acreage property might be the perfect fit!
