Super walkable location at the base of Cap Sante just 1/2 Block from Commercial Boat Launch. Filtered views of working waterfront. Easy 4 block walk or bike to downtown Anacortes with lots of shops and restaurants. Walk or bike a few blocks to Cap Sante Marina where Anthonys and the Cabana are located or you can book a whale watching tour. Similar distance up to the viewpoint of Cap Sante overlooking the entire Cap Sante Boat basin, downtown Anacortes and beyond. Saturdays at the FarmersMarket are also an easy walk/ bike. Watch the boats being built at Dakota Creek or bring a picnic to one of the many little pocket beaches in the neighborhood. Hop on a bike and ride the Tommy Thompson Trail and out across Padilla Bay on the old railroad trestle. The location is in the middle of everything of all the fun of downtown Anacortes but yet tucked away on a peaceful quiet street.

However, if you are looking for perfection this is probably not the right fit for your stay. Our goal is perfect imperfectness that is affordable. The stairs are circa 1905, the neighbors yard is not super tidy, you might hear industrious noises from the shipyard and the occasional clank of the barge ramp while it is loading up to bring supplies over to the islands and you will most definitely hear seagulls squawking. You will also catch glimpses of boats of all sizes and tankers with escort tugs going thru the Guemes channel and on foggy morning hear the fog horns. Walk the 1/2 block to the public access and get an unobstructed view of boats in the Guemes Channel Shipping Lane.

Vintage 1905 House located in the first platted block of Anacortes. All the charm of yesteryear (stairs still creak) but updated on the inside with an eclectic comfortable style. The outside of the home is still a work in progress. This is an older transitional neighborhood tucked between working waterfront and the waterfront view mansions on Cap Sante.

Upstairs bedrooms with Queen in Bedroom 1. 2 Queens in Bedroom 2 . 1/2 bath upstairs between bedrooms.

Downstairs is a fully stocked kitchen complete with zinc countertops and a neon ice cream sign. Bathroom with Shower, full size washer dryer, living room large screen Smart TV with internet service and a Dining area.

Fenced backyard with covered patio deck and shed complete with bicycles for your enjoyment.

    We were visiting our daughter for Thanksgiving holiday week. This gem of a house was not only right around the corner from her house in Cap Sante, it is also really close to our favorite places downtown. Erik (our host) is so thoughtful and had stocked the kitchen with enough gadgets, spices, etc., that we had everything we needed to cook a full holiday meal with all the fixings! We can’t wait to return next year!

    A fabulous stay at this adorable little house! Dolcee/Erik, the owner, greeted us with a warm smile and provided all the information we needed about Anacortes. The house is equipped with everything you need to have a comfortable stay. The kitchen is fully stocked, outdoor patio is delightful with bbq & gas fireplace. The interior decor is fun, the beds, pillows & furniture are great. A great walk to downtown for food and a good restaurant across the street! The extra touches & communication with the owner is like no other. She goes above & beyond. I would stay here again & highly recommend!

    You know you’ve found something special as soon as you walk through the front door. What a fantastic, unique property. The photos don’t do it justice - every detail has been attended to to reflect an authentic Anacortes vibe. Very walkable, great backyard and gracious hosts. We will definitely stay here again.

    The owners probably undersell this place in the listing. They're right it doesnt look like much from the outside, but it's wonderful on the inside. Clever decorating and more make it feel really homey. The backyard with the cover, the BBQ, and propane firepit are really nice. We'll absolutely stay here again! We came in by boat, and the owner even came to pick me up! It's a 15 minute walk to the main Cap Sante marina office and 5 minutes to the restaurants on commercial avenue.

    House is even nicer in real life! Erik was super communicative and helpful. Really good nights of sleep here. Appreciate the black out paper curtains :) Would 100% return.
