About this property
Modern Dream Lake Samish Waterfront Home
High Ceilings and Large windows make this home a place where the weight of the world fades away.
There is one bedroom with a queen bed, one queen size sleeper sofa (with a gel mattress) in the great room as well as a blow up queen mattress. A great place for two to six for a fun weekend.
My 'Girly Industrial' house theme is expressed in the pink accents, hand painted black peonies on the grey concrete floors to the truss joist with car-decking for the ceiling creating a loft like space.
I put in 'old lady' steps to easily get into the water off the dock so more are able to enjoy the lake on a hot day.
My house is designed for accessibility no curb for the shower 36 inch wide doors and it is all on one level. I brought my friend who is in a wheel chair for a weekend and she was happy to be so independent. For further details please call.
I am not always at a computer ( I am somewhat of a luddite) so my response time is not instant. I am at my computer on Mondays. Please feel free to call if time is of the essence. that is the best way to reach me.

About the host
Hosted by Jennifer Randall
I am an interior designer based in Seattle since 1975. Since 2020 I have been managing my projects from afar and working predominately from my Bellingham office.
In 2009 I designed and began building this house on Lake Samish. Fulfilling a life long dream of designing and building my own home. I tease my clients that I have had 40 years of practice on them when they see my house and like it.
I love my house and I enjoy sharing it with others..

Why they chose this property
I grew up on the lake I lived across West Lake Samish Drive (up on the hillaisw from this property) where my family still lives. They have lived at the lake since 1962.
I always dreamed of building a custom house on this slip of land that is my families access to the lake. I have been sketching for decades. So what you see is result of budget hitting dreams and shaking down into a comfortable relaxing place to be.

What makes this property unique
I grew up using the dock, swimming, skiing, and enjoying the lake however the first time as an adult I sat still and looked up the lake I felt the serenity of the view wash over me and I knew I wanted to live here.
So I have brought my precious things, my piano, art and Kitchenaid mixer (ha) to a space I can enjoy in anticipation of creating a place to retire. Until retirement I will share it with others and hope they can have a little piece of my dream for themselves.
