Welcome to Shore Ave, one of Whidbey Island's most sought-after beach communities. Own your slice of paradise with 35+/- ft of pristine no-bank waterfront on Useless Bay, where you step from the deck straight onto the sand. This single-level 1941 beach cottage offers 2 bedrooms and 1.75 baths, with breathtaking views of Mt. Rainier and the Seattle skyline across the water. Recent updates include a metal roof, new carpet and fresh interior and exterior paint, so the cottage is ready to enjoy from day one. Expansive decks make the most of the setting and lead directly to your private beach and tidelands, all on an 11,326 sq ft lot. Named "Useless" by early sailors who couldn't anchor their large ships here, the bay is anything but. Its unique geography reveals nearly 1,000 ft of sugar-sand beach at low tide, perfect for beachcombing, long walks and everything else that comes with beachfront living. One level, no bank and one of the most coveted beaches in the Pacific Northwest: this is the Whidbey Island waterfront cottage you have been waiting for.
