This is a truly unique investment opportunity in Bellingham’s highly sought-after South Hill neighborhood! This charming duplex offers sweeping bay views, strong rental potential, and a prime development opportunity. Situated close to WWU, Fairhaven, Blvd Park, and central Bellingham, it features two identical units, each having one bedroom, a bathroom, kitchen, living room, and a private entrance. You could live in one and rent the other, or lease both for excellent passive income. The real potential lies in the land and its location, as the lot may support 2 to 3 modern townhomes. With the increasing demand for new housing in this coveted location, this is a rare chance to invest, develop, or create your dream property in Bellingham.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
