About this property

Swedish Chateau in PT

A unique three story custom home just six miles from downtown Port Townsend. This home sits on five acres at the end of a private road. The grounds are landscaped with a large open field, two fire pits, one with a slow cooker grill for outdoor cooking. There is a wetlands on the property with ducks, heron and a variety of bird life. There is a large private bedroom on the first floor with a king size bed, mid-sized TV and half bath. With a hot tub just outside the back door. The second floor has a living room / dining area, kitchen, bedroom with a TV room with a very large TV and a full bath. There are two decks on the second floor. One overlooking the south yard with a small table and chairs, umbrella and a clean BBQ. The second deck overlooks the wetlands. From the second floor there is a large ladder (very easy to climb) to a large third floor loft. The loft has a library and an area perfect for kids indoor play. There is a queen size mattress for overflow guests or kids and room for one or two blow up mattresses. (As with most loft spaces the sound from the third floor can be heard on the floor below. So this is not for someone who needs privacy.) The kitchen has a Viking range, a Bosch dishwasher and is fully supplied with everything a cook would want or need. The refrigerator is a small, under the counter size, and there is a full size refrigerator/freezer in the first floor carport.

There are chickens and fresh eggs in the front yard and a nice, quiet road for long walks or an early morning stroll with coffee. The neighbors are very friendly and the street is very private. We are 12 minutes drive downtown Port Townsend where you can shop, go whale watching, enjoy a delicious meal, have some wine or walk around taking in the view. Fort Worden and Finnriver Cidery are just minutes away.

This is a unique property. The host was amazing, beautiful gardens, but probably not for everyone. The upstairs bedrooms have curtains, but no doors. The upstairs bathroom has a glass door (clear) that's not sound proof. It's a personal home so the sheets and towels are outstanding and I've never rented a place with a more fully furnished kitchen. That said, there are a lot of personal effects in the home including photos, clothing, and food. The uneven steps outside were hazardous for those with decreased mobility. I'm summation- lovely setting, amazing host, probably not for everyone.

Cozy home, beautiful location, & helpful host

We loved our stay here. Jack was so welcoming and helpful during our stay. The home is spacious with comfortable future and a fully equipped kitchen. The gas fireplaces, bonfire, and hot tub kept us warm during the cold days. It’s located a short drive from Port Townsend if you want to go into town, but there’s enough to do in the home/property to keep you busy.

Best family weekend ever

I came with two adult children and two older teens. We were warmly greeted and welcomed to the property upon our arrival. The house was so inviting and homey feeling. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking family meals including spices and dry goods including coffees and teas, Jack provided us with bread, eggs, butter and half-n-half for our arrival which was a kind gesture that we appreciated. Beds and linens were extremely comfortable. Communication before, during (if needed) and after the stay was great. We intend to come back for future family weekends!! Thank you Jack!!

Perfect Forest Getaway

My family just spent the weekend in this beautiful forest hideaway just outside of Port Townsend. We were in town for my sister's wedding and it was the ideal spot to get ready for, and relax after, all of the weekend activities. The house, the setting, and of course our host Jack, all made the weekend perfect. I will definitely look to stay here the next time I am in Port Townsend.

Peaceful retreat in Port Townsend

Jack, our host, couldn’t have been nicer and more accommodating. It’s a uniquely designed home—beautifully decorated, well-appointed kitchen, and the beds were very comfortable. The surrounding area is peaceful, and the property is beautifully landscaped. We will definitely return!

Super Kind Host

Jack is so kind and thoughtful. He kept in constant contact with us as we prepared for our trip to his house, allowed us to arrive at 2 am, and had coffee, bread, and eggs ready for our arrival. During our stay, we enjoyed a very quiet and peaceful area. Jack is a very friendly and attentive host.
