Welcome to Love Story...a little bit of Nantucket that just happens to be in Hoquiam on the West Coast! The vine-draped entry pillars bring so much welcome!
A gorgeous aerial of the home's estate size setting and the ocean bay beyond.
Set on 3.8+ acres of natural beauty overlooking the trees, above the inside bay of Ocean Shores, the owners have created a charming Shingle~styled home and setting that is steeped in Nantucket style.
The interiors must be seen to be fully appreciated. Both formal & casual living spaces are warm and richly layered in tradition of homes that only get better over time.
The dining area is romantic with the custom wood burning fireplace that was designed by the owners to replicate what would be found in a Nantucket east coastal home.
The kitchen boasts a generous island, subzero refrigerator & butler's pantry with wonderful stone tile flooring.
Just off the kitchen is a butler's pantry that makes the perfect morning coffee station and extra washing space for parties.
True coastal style kitchen with custom cabinetry, a custom cooktop hood accenting the living area wood floors found throughout the home.
The main floor powder room features a carved custom cabinetry and a late antique mirror, brushed walls in a coastal blue.
Upstairs, the primary suite is a true sanctuary, a luxurious travertine bath & a spacious dressing area.

The 2nd bedroom features abundant windows, dark wood floors, a built-in bed...definitely reminiscent of a coastal cottage bedroom.
The 2nd floor upstairs bath brings seashells, with custom seashell tile work in the shower, a favorite of the owners.
