800 Isola DI Vashon

Straight out of a Cape Cod postcard, this picture-perfect Governors Lane cottage is one of Vashon’s most charming little homes. Tucked into a beloved neighborhood of shingled cottages, wide front porches, apple trees, manicured lawns and easy beach walks, this is truly a rare opportunity to become part of a special island community. At 860 square feet, the home lives much larger thanks to expansive new Trex decks, covered and uncovered outdoor living spaces, and three sets of French doors that open the house to the outdoors. Peek views of the harbor add to the magic, while the level, fully fenced lot offers sunny lawn for games and gardening, charming garden beds and private lounging areas. Inside, fresh paint throughout, original wood floors, a parlor natural gas stove in the living room, butcher block counters and rattan lighting create a warm, collected cottage feel. Two bedrooms, a full bath with tub, and a new washer and dryer make the home as practical as it is charming. It is really all about the lifestyle here. A stone’s throw from the south-facing beach, nearby county forest trails and beach parks, and enjoy close proximity to one of only two public boat launches on Vashon. Homes on Governors Lane do not come to market often. This is a moment in time to step into a community, a neighborhood and a truly charmed way of island life.
