Make your hobby farm dreams come true at this classic Whatcom county farmhouse on 5 acres with ADU potential and Mount Baker views! Located just minutes outside Bellingham yet with all the benefits of county living, this 3-bed home with original hardwood floors and views of the mountain from both levels features a gas fireplace, large kitchen, main floor bedroom and new roof and carpets! The property also features a root cellar, potting shed with fenced garden, 3300 square foot 2-story shop and ~80x40 pole barn, great for storing equipment/RVs/boats or for animals. With a 2nd septic on site, RV hookups and partially finished ADU in the shop, this property could be great for multigenerational living or for supplemental income. Vintage barn has been repurposed into a huge shop and has tall ceilings, extra rooms, huge upper floor with skylights and old-growth timber beams. Pole barn with concrete floors can fit large RVs or boats and has had horse stables inside in the past, with an extra concrete pad on the side for extra parking or expansion. Property is already cross-fenced and could suit a wide range of uses from garden space to animal grazing. Fruit trees and flowers abound from cherry to apple, wisteria to lilac and more on this gorgeous, sunny property off of Smith Rd in the Meridian School District. Sit on the private porch and gaze at Mount Baker with your morning coffee, surrounded by pastoral farmland but only a short drive away from town.
