Vashon, Washington
Sunset Beach Paradise House
Sunset Beach Paradise is located on Vashon Island, on Puget Sound, in the small private beachfront community of Sylvan Beach. Just a short 15 minute ferry boat ride from Seattle, and a 10 minute ferry boat ride from Tacoma. The house is only 1.7 miles from the North end ferry dock which takes you to Seattle.
It is a wonderful Northwest contemporary waterfront beach home built in 1975, with western exposure, zero bank, a 180° view of Colvos Passage and a sandy, flat beach.
The house is built on four levels that includes a basement, a main level, a middle level 'bonus room', and a top level master bedroom. The main level consists of a combination living room/kitchen, full bathroom and a large closet. The basement consists of two small rooms, one with a double bunk bed, and the other room with a double bed. The basement level usually is locked out but can be available by request. There is plenty of beds/bedrooms for four people on the other levels. The middle level consists of a sitting room, and just off this room are two smaller bedrooms, one with a double bunk bed and the other with a double bed. The large master bedroom has a king size bed and a very nice bathroom with an oversized shower and double sinks. Most all of the furniture throughout the house is built-in.
Everything you need is here in our clean and comfortable beach home. There is a freestanding gas fireplace, dishwasher, microwave, washer and dryer, a BBQ, dishes, bedding, towels, 50" Roku TV, VCR, DVD and complimentary wireless internet. Bring your boat since we do have a mooring buoy for the house.
Enjoy beach walking, fishing, boating, watching blue herons fish, and eagles soar. Listen to the lapping of the waves, see the sunset behind the Olympic Mountains and the moon reflecting on the water. It is a feast for the senses. Sit back, relax, enjoy!
I would also like to mention that our home is considered a walk-in which is not unusual for Vashon Island. What this means is that you can drive down the Sylvan Beach road to the water's edge. The house is located on the south walk, about a 200' flat, predominantly, cement walk. We have two wheelbarrows to bring anything in. Once you unload you park your car about 100' up the road. There are some waterfront homes on the island that you can drive to, but then have to walk/bring your things down 125 stairs. We like our situation better. It really is not a big deal. We have had a lady in her nineties visit many times.
Don't forget to bring an old pair of shoes for beach walking.
Fun, beach home, on water, tide watching, Olympics, large deck, private, gas fireplace, kitchen has any utensil or appliance needed. Will stay again!
We enjoyed the getaway at a truly unique property!
Loved the retro vibe of this cute beach house! Marianne is very thorough and made sure our stay was easy to navigate. The view is spectacular and all the windows! You will enjoy your stay here, I'm sure of it.
Charming, well equipped cabin. Great communication with Marianne. Property was as described in a beautiful setting. Can’t wait to return.
Wonderful beach for walking and swimming. The views from the property were amazing. Lots of birds and seals in the water. Very comfortable. Beds were great. Property owners were really friendly, kind, and helpful. We will stay here again.
We have rented four waterfront homes on Vashon over the past 18 months and this home is right at the top. Great location, amenities and communication with the owner. We definitely will stay again!
While it’s a bit of a walk, this would be a perfect place to stay during the warmer months. The view is spectacular and the beach at low tide is lovely.
Absolutely beautiful views from every floor and window. The road to the property was also quite beautiful through a heavily wooded area. Kitchen well stocked with dishes , pots/pans, utensils, etc for cooking. Nice bathrooms and laundry facilities Quite an uphill/downhill walk from the parking area to the property. However, a temporary parking area for loading/unloading was available with a short, flat walkway to the property. Bed and futon were very comfortable. The only negative was the built-in furniture in the living area which was very uncomfortable. The property owners were very friendly and helpful with information about the area. They also informed us of the distance and walk to the parking area so that was not a surprise.
Great place to stay with friends!
My friend and I had a lovely weekend trip here and felt super relaxed and well taken care-of. Thanks for sharing your home!
