Homes for Sale in Port Angeles, Washington
Port Angeles Country Home with Acreage, 259 Hunt Road, Port Angeles, WA  98363
Below Current Appraisal by $25,000 at $425,000


Disabled veteran puts his house on the market for a quick sale.  This is a rare opportunity for the right buyer. Want to know more?  Read on.  This estate will be sold to the first firm offer of $425,000.

This home is a few miles west of Port Angeles on 2.27 acres, and it borders on 80 acres of State DNR land with a walking trail down to Freshwater Bay on the beautiful Strait of Juan de Fuca!  This is almost too good to be true.

Imagine almost 2,600 square feet of comfortable country living in a contemporary 4 bedroom castle, a gorgeous living room with beautiful cathedral ceilings (as you can see from photos), a jetted tub in a large bathroom, a sweet kitchen, and . .

For the man of the house . . . there's a gigantic shop building, 36 x 60 feet with steel beams on the front of the shop (this thing is practically hurricane proof, although we don't have hurricanes here). 

The garage doors are 14 feet high, and the shop ceiling is about 16 feet high.  The inside of the shop is what you might expect of a man who uses it for working on equipment and vehicles, but don't expect a finished touch.  If you want sheetrock and trim, you can do that with your own touch.  Hey, be thankful the owner didn't sink more money into the shop, because this property would be a lot more expensive. 

There's a segregated wood working area in the shop (the lower double garage door), and above that is a 720 square foot unfinished area (see the windows on the second floor in the photo), which we jokingly call the "mother-in-law apartment." 

The front living room area is large, and this really a second living room, because there is a living room with a wood stove and cathedral ceilings, too.

As you can see from the kitchen photo, this house is full of beautiful wood work.

Want to know more about this house?  Okay.  Here's some great detail that should get your heartbeat up:

New window and door trim (Old Growth Douglas Fir from salvaged logs)  "This isn`t store bought. I personally went 300 miles north to buy the salvage logs and we sawed the lumber ourselves."   You cannot buy wood like this at Home Depot.

Outside attachment to the house: 12 x 20 Laundry Room with floor drain, 30 feet of counterspace, cabinets, and deep sink. It also makes a great meat cutting room if you fish and/or hunt.

Quiet, mostly retirement oriented neighborhood 8 miles west of Port Angeles on the West side of the Elwha River, 1 mile from the beach and the best surfing. The Elwha is known for some of the best Steelhead and Salmon fishing, rafting and kayaking available in Washington. The Elwha is born high in the Olympic National Park and is unspoiled and clean.

There is a private community BBQ and Picnic area with a large enclosed party room with sinks and such down at the river, for the use of only members on the water system, which also provides access to the river.

Water is from 2 deep wells under the river, on a small community water association. Due to carefully invested money from past dues, there has been NO FEES FOR WATER the LAST 3 YEARS! CLEAN WATER FOR FREE! Water share goes with the house, no extra charge.

Property is bordered on the north side by State timberlands (80 acres) and will never be developed. Wildlife is seen daily. Deer love the apples that don`t get picked up from our orchard of 19 trees. Apple, Cherry, and pear were planted in 1984 and provide more than we can eat, preserve, and give away.

The Loan is assumable by someone who qualifies.

You'll fall in love with this kitchen. 

And from your kitchen, you can look out the window and you'll see this photo on the right.  No, that's not a hunting lodge dad, that's the kids' playhouse!





Check out the RV Parking area behind the house.  What the heck does this house NOT have?  Hmm.  Just a minute, I'm thinking . . .
