Description
Introducing the historic De Blois Residence—a truly one-of-a-kind, heritage-registered French-style farmhouse in prestigious Cordova Bay, inspired by a Provençal ancestral home and crafted by a master shipwright. Built with stone and pumice, this distinctive home is the epitome of timeless character. The dramatic great room, flooded with natural light, showcases 14’ beamed ceilings, a stunning cathedral window and a granite fireplace. Warm wood floors lead to a mezzanine with leaded French doors opening to a serene primary retreat. A charming farmhouse kitchen with Aga stove opens to a sun-drenched deck with ocean views to the San Juan Islands and Mt. Baker. A lower-level suite adds flexibility. Wander a winding gravel path to a detached 1-bed & loft studio, set among gardens and a spacious patio—evoking a private French countryside retreat. Steps to Agate Beach and remarkably quiet. Definitely one to be seen to be appreciated.
