Your adventure begins... in a new, modern and fresh space with tons of natural light and privacy. Imagine waking to the sounds of farm animals, sipping morning coffee on your covered porch as sunlight breaks through the big leaf maples, wandering miles of forested trails, biking island roads, kayaking, paddle boarding or combing sandy beaches of Puget Sound while searching for sea treasures. When nighttime falls, share stories around a bonfire and count stars as they fall from the sky. The space Reminiscent of an old barn on the outside, natural light bounces off the concrete floors and fills every nook and cranny of the bright space. Built with materials that match LEED requirements, allergens, dust, and dirt are as minimal as can be in any living environment. Radiant heated concrete floors keep you warm when winter days are wet and chilly, and cool when the sun’s rays spread wide across the yard’s big leaf maples. Scattered throw rugs add a dash of color and a soft landing for bare toes. A black cast-iron propane stove, set in a large fireplace surround formed with Rocky Mountain Granite, anchors the open kitchen and living space. An oversized white bubble fan swooshes air in and out paned wood clad windows, keeping the temperature inside always comfortable. The well-stocked kitchen has all the essentials for cooking. You can cook in the gourmet kitchen with a full set of spices, pots, pans, and baking needs supplied. The special, new appliances include a Thermador dishwasher and gas stove/range. The deep farm sink with pull-out faucet makes clean-up easy. The bathroom, covered in white subway tile from floor to ceiling, boasts a deep tub and shower combination with excellent water pressure, a comfort height toilet, and a modern vanity with porcelain sink and countertop. The main floor bedroom has a queen Tempurpedic bed, four oversized windows with views to the forest and open field, and expansive closet space. Up in the loft you will find a comfy Simmons pillow-top queen bed. Measuring almost 250 sq. ft the loft offers an additional living area with sofa, desk, plenty of drawers for personal items, and bookcases filled with games, reading material, and treasures from around the world. A favorite, heirloom wicker rocking chair anchors the corner. As a bonus, the grey sofa in the main living room pulls out to a twin-size bed. Roller shades cover the windows on both levels of home. A washer and dryer are provided. Well-behaved dogs are welcomed upon request and review and for a $50/ flat fee. City of Bainbridge-Short Term Rental Permit: P-000047 KEY FEATURES: Sq.

Other things to note WHY THIS LOCATION: You’ll hear coyotes cackle, owls hoot, and eagles squawk. While sipping morning coffee the deer will graze on your front lawn. You’ll spot owls staring back at you from limbs of old growth cedars, eagles soaring above, and gaggles of geese migrate as the day progresses. You’ll pick buckets of blackberries ripened by the summer sun. On clear evenings, you’ll see the milky way and stars shooting across the dark sky. The sounds, sights, and touches of nature will fill you up. This is what makes the Little Farmhouse special. Registration details P-000047
