Description

I'm a writer based in Bellingham and Montreal. This is a home that my dad and I designed together, with a purpose-built ADU over the attached garage. Separate entrance, so the unit is self-contained, though we do share a roof and wall. The aesthetic is clean, prioritizing beautiful finishes, natural light, and a graceful flow through the rooms. The space is intended for visiting friends and family, or as a mid-term rental to a visiting academic, nurse, or other professional. Hardwood floors, fir doors and trim, granite countertops, hand-picked tile, solid cherrywood furniture. A large back deck affords views of the neighborhood and, when the trees are bare, peek-a-boo views of the bay. High-speed wifi, utilities, and parking are included. Large front yard with garden, and sizable back yard with patio, apple trees, hammock in the spring and summer. The Columbia neighborhood is one of Bellingham's most beloved, as it is friendly, close to downtown, walkable to parks, the beach, cafes, breweries, shops, and restaurants.
