A classic 3-bedroom home and an epic 40x60 shop complete with a 2-bedroom MIL suite upstairs. Let’s start with the shop building: 2-story, 2-bay space with in-floor radiant heat, car lift, ¾ bath, office, and kitchen. Upstairs you’ll find a well-designed 1,500 sqft. MIL suite featuring a primary bedroom with en-suite bath, a second bedroom, kitchen, fireplace, loft, and A/C. It’s the perfect live/work setup — or rent out the part you don’t need. Steps away from the shop is the historic Girard home, with all its classic character intact: 3 bedrooms, a full bathroom, living and dining rooms, hardwood floors, built-ins and a charming breakfast nook off the kitchen. The mid-sized 0.6-acre lot gives you just enough room to play and enjoy privacy without the hassle of acres of maintenance. You get two RV parking pads with hookups and waste connection, plenty of extra parking, two outdoor spaces for cooking and relaxing, and two gated driveways. Costco, I-5, Ferndale, and Bellingham are just minutes away — but you’ll never want to leave this one-of-a-kind property. See it in person before it’s gone!
