Looking south across the water from this three-bedroom, two (newly remodeled) bath home on Quartermaster Harbor, you can experience the grandeur and the tranquility that have made this island environment a favorite for decades. Located five miles from the southern end of Vashon Island and the ferry to Tacoma, and ten miles from the northern tip of the island and ferries to Seattle and the Kitsap Peninsula, the "Burton Beach" is a prime location for a relaxed, or active lifestyle. Commuting to Seattle or Tacoma from this home is a breeze with the Burton bus stop only 2 blocks away, and fast ferry service to downtown Seattle. The privately owned, beach on a naturally protected harbor is just steps from the front door. It invites activities of all kinds, including beachcombing strolls and wildlife viewing.
