A rare opportunity to live on Fir Island in the heart of Skagit Valley! The owners of this private multi-structured compound created a masterpiece of harmony and beauty in this eastern-inspired retreat with no immediate neighbors. Each building has a warm cabin feel, each with its own features. Spend days gardening with unique plantings and unique fruit trees. Relax in the evening barbequing under the wisteria-filled trellises. Great as an art studio and gallery space, the converted barn has a wealth of possibilities for future use. The landscaped property is a big draw for birds of many species. Watch the snow geese flock in the fields around the property or see Trumpeter swans flying overhead. Freeway access is only seven minutes away!
