This walk-in property is a short five minute walk along a woodland trail to the Vashon ferry terminal. Head five minutes east from the Vashon ferry terminal, then find the trailhead just south of yellow garage; walk through the secluded forest trail down to the water.

Walk to work downtown without a car, go home to your own secluded waterfront, with forever views of the Puget Sound waters, Cascade mountains,Blake Island, ferry boats and abundant wildlife. There are only twenty walk-in properties located on the north end of Vashon, but each is connected to public sewer and water.

Annual payments of $1781 pay down the remaining balance on the sewer assessment. Plumbing and wiring are all up to date. Seller will pay up to $600 for a home warranty on all appliances, washer, dryer, refrigerator, stove, microwave, hot water heater (1997).
