Twin Coves is a rare waterfront sanctuary on Orcas Island, defined by natural beauty, quiet luxury, and true self-reliance. Set on over four acres with two sheltered coves and west-facing shoreline, the property offers exceptional privacy and year-round sunsets. The main residence sits above the water with warm, timeless architecture and spaces that follow the light throughout the day. Indoor and outdoor living blend seamlessly, creating inviting places for gathering, hosting, or quiet reflection. Two beautifully finished guest cottages are tucked among the trees, each offering privacy, comfort, and flexibility for multi-generational living, hosting, or income generation. A deep-water dock with potable water, power, and Wi-Fi provides protected moorage and is capable of accommodating seaplanes. Two private mooring buoys offer additional secure anchorage within the coves, allowing effortless access to the San Juan Islands. Designed for ease and independence, the estate is supported by solar power, automatic backup systems, and layered redundancy across all critical components to ensure continued operation. Three water harvesting systems, including a private well, rain catchment and pump house with advanced filtration - along with efficient radiant heating and mechanical systems work quietly in the background. Twin Coves is a rare offering - an elegant, self-sustaining retreat where land, water and thoughtful design come together. 5 bedrooms & 5.5 baths across three properties.
