Rare opportunity to own a sun-filled, newer custom-built home with 43’ of low-bank waterfront on one of the PNW’s most coveted beaches! Named ‘Useless’ by early sailors unable to anchor large ships, the bay is anything but—its unique geography reveals nearly 1,000’ of sugar-sand beach at low tide, perfect for beachfront living & beach combing. This original-owner home blends modern coastal shingle-style design with postcard views of Mt. Rainier, Seattle & the shipping lanes. With sunny, south-facing exposure that fills the home with natural light from dawn to dusk, the interior features 3 bedrooms, an office & 3 baths. The spacious primary suite occupies its own wing with sweeping views, a spa-like ensuite, walk-in closet & private laundry.
