From a rise on the western shore of Herron Island, this single-level home overlooks Case Inlet and the Olympics. Colors change with the light and seasons, but the beauty remains steadfast, a daily companion to life. Front room windows frame the water and snowy peaks and a sliding door opens to the newly-built deck. First owned by ferry captain Charlie Wells, namesake of the island ferry, updates include bedroom carpet and windows, renovated baths and new kitchen flooring. The pace of life is measured in kayak excursions, community potlucks and hours looking out over the Salish Sea. Ride the ferry home with a load of groceries and feel the curtain fall on all the bustle, exchange it for beaches, whale sightings, slow roads and quiet nights.
