Lovingly restored and thoughtfully expanded, this 1925 South Hill Craftsman offers a rare blend of historic charm, modern infrastructure, and an exceptional location—just a 15-minute walk to Taylor Dock, the Bellingham Bay waterfront, and downtown Fairhaven. Extensive renovations preserve original character while delivering the comforts and systems today’s buyers expect. The home features 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, including a second-story primary suite with en suite bath added during a comprehensive renovation. In 2018, updates included a new roof, electrical, plumbing, heating and ventilation systems, windows, kitchen, bathrooms, refinished or new fir and oak wood floors, plus structural and foundation work with seismic upgrades. Covered front and rear porches and a partially covered deck extend the living space outdoors. Set on a rare double lot, the property offers expansive yard space, mature fruit trees, RV parking, and excellent ADU/DADU potential. A detached garage and shop with 100-amp service, completed in 2020, provide flexibility for storage, hobbies, or creative use. Additional improvements include a new sewer line, sidewalk, landscaping, survey, and thoughtful upgrades throughout. Located in one of Bellingham’s most desirable neighborhoods near waterfront trails, parks, schools, and downtown amenities, this is a truly special South Hill property—rich in history, solid in construction, and ready for its next chapter.
