About this home

A rare opportunity to own a truly special stretch of Skykomish River frontage in the heart of the Sky Valley. Set on a double lot with an expansive sandy beach along a calm, swimmable stretch of river, this one-of-a-kind cabin offers the kind of waterfront lifestyle—and vacation rental potential—that’s increasingly hard to find. Enter through the sunroom wrapped in floor-to-ceiling windows and into warm, inviting living spaces filled with wood and stone accents, a cozy woodstove, and stunning river and mountain views from nearly every room. The main level also features a chef’s kitchen with concrete counters, a 5-burner gas range, and an adjoining dining room that opens to a balcony overlooking the river. Flexible sleeping spaces include a main-floor bedroom, upstairs loft bedroom, and lower-level guest retreat with ensuite half bath and private deck. Outside, enjoy the beach, firepit, and easy access to swimming, fishing, and paddle boarding right from your own backyard. Located in a gated, Airbnb-friendly community just 5 miles from the charming mountain town of Index and 30 minutes to Stevens Pass, this is a rare opportunity to own a truly special waterfront getaway with exceptional appeal as a personal escape, full-time home, or sought-after vacation rental.
