Extraordinary 60-acre private wilderness estate with luxury living and outdoor adventures. At the heart of this exceptional property is a custom-built home adjacent to its own 8-acre lake with its own island and the headwaters of Haynie Creek, with annual salmon returns. Truly an outdoor enthusiast's paradise with fishing, hunting, wildlife watching, and exploring your own nature preserve with miles of private roads and trails winding through towering evergreens, along the creek, and around the lake. The beautifully designed home offers a spacious primary suite occupying the entire upper level, complete with vaulted ceilings, a gas stove, walk-in closets, and covered deck. Each level features a bedroom and bath, along with spacious gathering areas, recreation room with wet bar, media room, office, fitness room, and secure safe room. An impressive 2,280-square-foot heated shop features a half bath, loft storage, and 2 elevated decks. Additional amenities include a 550-square-foot powered and plumbed greenhouse with automatic ventilation, large chicken coop, covered dog run, and 30kW automatic backup generator with a dedicated 1,000-gallon propane tank. Operated as a working tree farm, the property has tax advantages and long-term investment value. Remarkably private yet just 30 minutes from both Bellingham and Vancouver, BC. A rare and private PNW paradise.
