Puget Sound Orca Retreat - Poulsbo, WA

Combining the privacy of a wooded retreat with a spectacular 180-degree view of the Puget Sound Waterfront, this light-filled home invites you to get away from your daily routine and play, enjoy, and relax with your family and friends. Easily accessible with a 75 minute drive from Seattle’s SEATAC airport, this 1.3 acre property offers seclusion and privacy.

Two full porches offer breathtaking water views. The two primary suites, each with a king bed and private ensuite bath, allow luxurious bathing with full water views (one of the suites also has a gas fireplace). A convenient workstation includes a monitor, keyboard, and printer for those working remotely.

A fully stocked kitchen with a six-burner gas stove, two ovens, and two dishwashers provides the necessary tools to create a feast. You can also fire up the gas grill on the patio and cook salmon or try your hand with the wood-fired pizza oven. The dining table seats 12 beside a gas fireplace and is lined by glass windows to allow a spectacular view of the water. Experience cozy warmth throughout the house with radiant heating upstairs and baseboard heating in the basement, ensuring a snug and inviting atmosphere for your stay.

After hours, the basement game room has a full pool table, a foosball table, and board games. Or watch a DVD from the extensive video library or streamed movies on the large screen TV. A small refrigerator and popcorn machine allow you to have the perfect refreshments for your evening. S’mores are on the menu on the large outdoor fire pit overlooking the night lights on the bay.

Or keep in shape with the private gym, which has a state-of-the-art stationary spinning bike, elliptical machine, a boxing speed ball and Everlast punching bag. Yoga mats, a movable ballet bar to tone and stretch, and a TV is also available to stream your favorite workout. A basketball hoop on a large cement area will allow for your friends and family to combine some fun playtime with your workout. A walk down the private pathway to the waterfront allows you to experience the bay and maybe a swim; or take the two kayaks out for a spin on the bay.

Perfectly located, you'll be just a 14-minute drive to picturesque Poulsbo and its restaurants or a 15-minute drive to the Bainbridge Ferry Terminal to Pikes Market in Seattle (ferry allows walk-on or drive-on access). Thus, you can be in Seattle for dinner in less than an hour. This hideaway is also a great retreat after an event at nearby Kiana Lodge or the Suquamish Clearwater Casino. Take a walk on many of the local hiking trails.

This is the best of both worlds—a private retreat with breathtaking water views and an expansive property with easy reach to downtown Poulsbo, Seattle and beyond. It has three king bedrooms, two of which have full water views and ensuite bathrooms and porches and the other with a birch forest view. Get away from the stress of your everyday experience and relax in this amazing home retreat.
