253 Seagull Dr, Port Angeles, WA 98363

Welcome to 253 Seagull Drive, a distinctive Dutch Colonial saltbox-style home on Observatory Point near the Freshwater Bay boat launch. Set on 2.5 beautiful acres with water views, gently sloping pasture, white vinyl fencing and rock walls, this home was built over five years using wood harvested from the property itself. The craftsmanship shows throughout: Douglas fir floors assembled with old ship nails, Douglas fir doors and trim, a slate entry, Crestline wood windows, engineered glulam beams and a metal roof. Engineered wing walls add to the thoughtful construction; an engineer's certificate documenting the home's exceptional structural strength is available. The main level offers an inviting living room and a kitchen with cherry cabinets, porcelain tile counters, an island, stainless steel appliances and a new propane range. A laundry room and full bath complete this level. Upstairs are the primary suite with a bonus room and an electric fireplace and the second bedroom, both with excellent views. The open third floor offers flexible space for an office, recreation room or bonus room, with a closet, ceiling fan, separate subpanel and plumbing in place for a future bath. The permitted lower-level ADU has its own entrance, bedroom area, living room, kitchen, full bath, laundry and subpanel. Its finishes include slate floors, burled maple counters and hickory cabinets. A new LG refrigerator, propane range, new water heater and generous wine storage add to its appeal. A detached one-car garage provides abundant storage, with a separate woodshed nearby. The property is served by a 317-foot well and an owned 500-gallon propane tank. Heat sources include baseboards powered by a propane-fired cast iron boiler, two ductless heat pumps and wood stoves, and a generator conveys. A remarkable home and property in a neighborhood of beautiful homes.
