Catch the ferry, watch the shoreline shrink behind you, and arrive somewhere most people don't even know is real. Herron Island is one of the last privately-owned islands in Puget Sound, home to a close community of just over 100 residents, where eagles wheel overhead, deer wander freely, and the noise of everyday life feels miles away. Spend your time at North Beach Park, the untouched shoreline of South Beach, or the quiet of Goodpastor Park. It's the kind of place visitors stumble upon and keep thinking about long after they leave. This 1-bedroom, 1-bath bungalow with a versatile bonus room sits on just over half an acre — one of the island's bigger buildable lots — and has already been upgraded with a complete kitchen and bathroom remodel plus brand-new appliances. The foundation for a mini homestead is in place too: a fenced, deer-proof garden bed where dahlias used to bloom, and a chicken coop waiting for its next flock. Keep it as a private getaway, list it as a rental when you're not around, or hang onto it as a launchpad for something larger later. HOA includes water. You'll reach the island via the community ferry, the Charlie Wells, a quick 10-minute ride that changes everything.
