CONVENIENT CENTRAL LOCATION: It’s a quick and beautiful walk to local beach access where you can launch your kayak or paddleboard or go for a swim in the Sound. And a quick drive around the corner is another beach access location where you can launch your kayak and spread out on the beach. Just up the road to the north is the ever-popular and convenient Rolling Bay area stocked with great shops. The Bay Hay & Feed Store is a favorite stop where you will find a myriad of goodies such as gifts made by local artists, toys for the kids, rain boots, clothes, dog food, and even baby chicks! Don’t forget the huge selection of plants and trees for your yard. Next door is the local post office and of course, you can grab a coffee at Rolling Bay Cafe or have dinner at Via Rosa 11, a truly tasty Italian restaurant. The Seattle ferry, downtown Winslow, and shopping are less than 10 minutes away, which places this home in one of the most ideal locations on the island.
