About this home

Tucked into the desirable Hillcrest neighborhood of Mount Vernon, this thoughtfully preserved mid-century modern home offers a rare blend of privacy, character, and livable design. Set on a shy acre surrounded by mature evergreens, the home captures sweeping west-facing views over the Skagit Valley and unforgettable sunsets from multiple decks. Inside, clean lines, warm wood tones, and original built-ins reflect the home’s architectural roots, while meaningful updates bring comfort and functionality. The spacious layout lives larger than expected, with multiple gathering areas that flow easily for both quiet living and entertaining. The updated kitchen features quartz countertops, stainless appliances, and a double oven, opening to adjacent living and dining spaces filled with natural light. Large windows and sliding doors connect seamlessly to outdoor decks and patio areas, creating a true indoor-outdoor lifestyle. The expansive primary suite offers a private retreat with direct deck access, an updated bath, and generous space to unwind. Additional rooms provide flexibility for guests, office space, or creative use. Recent improvements include a metal roof (2021), new furnace (2020), and updated windows—allowing the next owner to enjoy both character and peace of mind. The fully fenced yard, multiple outdoor living areas, and terraced patio with spa create a setting that feels secluded yet connected to town. Now vacant and move-in ready, this is a unique opportunity
