The next renters will find an abundance of green space for children and approved pets to run and play in both the front and back yard. The back yard is safely fenced. They’ll also find plenty of camaraderie with neighbors, many who are working on NAS Whidbey.

Colonial style homes have a following who are thrilled to see a vacancy when house shopping. Maybe the architecture is a fond memory from childhood or an always admired aesthetic. Either way, Oak Harbor has one available with more than its fair share of charm, not to mention the ideal neighborhood location.
The interior is almost 3,000 square feet, which allows for ample space to entertain, while at the same time offering plenty of storage. The master bedroom/bath is a gem outfitted with coveted dual vanities and a separate shower. The built-in bathtub offers a retreat-like feel for a bit of respite at the end of the day. Keeping with the overall style of the home, the kitchen continues the Colonial allure with white cabinets and a butcher block island. Updated touches like granite counter tops and appliances ensure a modern practicality.
