At A Glance

Four thousand square feet on one quiet acre.

Built in 2007 with the heavy timber, river stone, and shake-siding vocabulary of the Pacific Northwest. Set well off the road on a full acre near the Bellingham line, thirty minutes south of the Canadian border.

Frame By Frame

Step onto the porch. Then through the door.

Front elevation of the craftsman estate in midday Pacific Northwest light, framed by a Japanese maple and cedars. — Daytime tells the second story. The cedar shake and timber gables, plainly read against blue sky.

The front entry with timber truss ceiling, stone column bases, and a dark wood craftsman door over a flagstone landing. — Heavy timber, river stone, and shake. The vocabulary of the porch, repeated up to the gable line.

A covered porch with cedar-plank ceiling, hardwood deck, and a sliding glass door looking into the great room with a stone fireplace. — The porch opens directly into the great room. In summer the doors disappear. In winter the fire is two steps away.

A two-story foyer with a hardwood staircase, wrought iron chandelier, and a sightline into the great room with arched built-in shelving and a stone fireplace. — Inside, the room opens to a second-story ceiling. The stair runs the height of the house. Light is everywhere.

“You don't build a craftsman like this in 2007 by accident. You build it because you intend to stay.”

On The Architecture

The Residence

Built to feel inevitable.

5715 Applegrove sits in a clearing of mature cedar and Douglas fir, set back from the road on a private acre. The architecture is straight from the Northwest playbook: deep eaves, exposed rafter tails, shake siding, river stone bases, a wrap-around porch that catches both the morning and the long Pacific evening.

Four thousand and ninety-two square feet, but the volume reads larger. The two-story foyer opens onto a great room with a stone fireplace, arched built-in shelving, and a sightline straight through the kitchen to the porch beyond. Four bedrooms, four bathrooms, a three-car attached garage. Room for a family, room for guests, and room to disappear when you need to.

Ferndale is the small town just north of Bellingham, thirty minutes from the Canadian border. The address is rural in feel and connected in fact. A weekend in Vancouver. A morning in the San Juans. An afternoon at home, watching the cedars move.

What Makes It Singular

Six moments that make the house.

The Timber-Truss Porch

Exposed heavy timber, cedar-plank ceiling, lantern sconces. A porch you sit on, not one you walk past.

The Two-Story Foyer

The room opens up to the second floor. Wrought iron chandelier. Hardwood stair that climbs the full height.

The Stone Hearth

A full river-stone fireplace anchors the great room. Flanked by arched built-in shelving. Lit, it is the center of the house.

Indoor-Outdoor Sliding Doors

The great room opens directly to the covered porch through full-height sliders. In Pacific Northwest summer, the wall disappears.

Three-Car Attached Garage

Three bays under the same roofline. Storage, workshop, daily drivers, and the boat or trailer that Whatcom County life requires.

The One-Acre Setback

The house sits well back from the road behind a long driveway and a screen of mature trees. The neighbors are present, but never in the frame.

The Neighborhood

Ferndale, as it lives.

Ferndale sits between Bellingham and the Lummi shoreline, in the green northwest corner of Washington. The town has a working main street, a Saturday market, and the kind of school district that keeps families.

Twenty minutes south, Bellingham. Thirty minutes north, the Canadian border at Sumas. An hour and a half by ferry to the San Juan Islands. Two hours to Seattle when you want it. The point of Ferndale is that you don't have to drive much, but you can.
