About 8617 Semiahmoo Drive
Waterfront living has never been more accessible. Experience the tranquility of west-facing oceanfront living in the Pacific Northwest. This charming, mid-century, single-level home captures sweeping views of Semiahmoo Bay, the San Juan Islands, and the glowing evening lights of White Rock—offering unforgettable sunsets and a constantly changing coastal backdrop. Designed with a thoughtful, flowing floor plan, the home is anchored by a sunken living room where expansive water views and a wood-burning fireplace create a warm, inviting gathering space. A formal dining room connects seamlessly to the open kitchen, complemented by a cozy adjacent eating nook—ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. Set on a generous waterfront lot, the property features mature landscaping, a fenced garden, and a grassy lawn, all oriented to fully enjoy the west-facing exposure, water views, and peaceful surroundings. Offered on leased land, this waterfront opportunity provides exceptional value and significantly lower property taxes—making west-facing oceanfront living far more accessible than comparable fee-simple properties.
