About this home

Rare opportunity to own a beautiful 15-acre parcel zoned R5A, offering exceptional flexibility for development or estate use. The mostly level property sits tucked back from Bay Road, with a gentle north-facing slope and commanding territorial views across North County to the Canadian Cascades. With R5A zoning, the property presents the potential to short plat into three 5-acre estate parcels, or retain the acreage as open space and take advantage of its low property taxes. Approved well sites and power already installed along Telestar Rd provide an excellent foundation for future development, with additional utilities needed. The adjoining 20-acre parcel to the south is also available, creating an extraordinary opportunity to acquire up to 35 acres and establish a private estate, family compound, or thoughtfully planned collection of homes. Conveniently located approximately 8 minutes from Birch Bay and 20 minutes from downtown Bellingham, this property combines privacy, expansive views, development flexibility, and easy access to local amenities. A rare offering for those looking to build, invest, or create a legacy property in a beautiful North County setting.
