4 Bedroom House in West Sound, Eastsound

Apfel Haus is warm, inviting house in a superb location. It is a 4 bedroom, 2 1/2 bath house with a fully equipped gourmet kitchen. 3 min to the ferry landing and 10 minutes to Eastsound. 50 acres of land surround this home, with loads of space to walk and explore. Sitting high on a bluff, the house has a magnificent view of West Sound and its activity, wildlife and sunsets. Great for summer exploration as well as sitting by the fire watching a big winter storm blow through.
This architecturally significant 4-bedroom view home--all surrounded by 50 acres in coveted West Sound offers many landscapes: forested hills, mossy knolls, orchards and pasture. Appel Haus is a wonderful spot for a romantic getaway, visiting with friends and family, or peaceful time on your own. Relax and unwind, or call it home base while you hike, kayak, bike, swim, fish, shop local boutiques, dine, tour local farms, whale watch, or take art or yoga classes.
The house, located in one of the sunniest areas of the island, offers lovely views of the sound, forest and pastoral land surrounding the house. We are west-facing and the sunset views are fantastic!
The main house is a 3 bedroom, 2 full bath house. The main-floor master has a king bed and an ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower.
The first upstairs guest room has two twin beds. There is a shared full bath with a bath/shower combo. The second upstairs bedroom has a queen bed. All guest towels and linens are provided.
There is an additional bedroom apartment above the detached garage just a few steps away from the main house.
Its room has two twin beds and a half bath and can be booked for an additional $100 a night. Just Click the “additional bed” button, and it should automatically add in the correct pricing.
The gourmet kitchen is fully equipped with all the cookware, dishes and utensils you will need. Appliances are all high-end: Sub Zero fridge/freezer, Viking stove, Dacor oven, microwave and warming drawer, Miele dishwasher. There is also a full pantry with the basics--spices, oils and vinegars and baking supplies.
There is a large dining room table that can comfortably seat 8.
The living room is circled with large picture windows to take in the view of the water, deer, bunnies and eagles. Warm up in front of the floor to ceiling rock fireplace. In the cooler months, radiant underfloor heat throughout the house keeps you cozy.
In the upper loft we have a flat screen Smart TV and access to Netflix, Vudu, Amazon, etc. In addition, there is a DVD player. Bring your own DVDs or borrow one from our library. There are cards, puzzles and games to keep you entertained if you come in long enough from the beauty of Orcas.
There is a fire pit a short walk away for nighttime s'mores, music and stargazing.
Just down the path are 52 happy chickens, five very friendly goats, 10 ducks and a large vegetable garden. Grab eggs for your morning omelette, and in the summer, help yourself to whatever is in season from the garden--tomatoes, cucumbers, squash and lettuce.
Outside, there is a dining table for meals al fresco, plenty of outdoor seating to take in the view, and a hot tub to soak in and stargaze.
You will have full use of the washer and dryer, including detergent and softener.
There is free WiFi on the premises
While children are welcome, if you have small children with you, it should be noted that the house sits up on a high bluff, and while there is not a sheer drop off, children should be watched closely.
There is also an open loft down to the lower floor. Small children and agile climbers should be watched very carefully. In addition, at the farm, there are two ponds--one is quite large, so kids of all ages need to be supervised.
This house is wheelchair accessible.
For elderly guests or those with difficulty moving around, the main floor of the house has everything you need--kitchen, laundry and master bed and bath.
Please treat this house as you would treat your own. It is very special to us.

Summary: This was our second stay at Appel Haus, and while it was difficult to imagine having an even better time this visit than our last one. . . we absolutely did! The location is magical, the accommodations high end, and the kitchen was large and well-appointed so we could make some wonderful family meals together. We are crazy for their large wood-burning fireplace and having dinner on the deck overlooking the West Sound watching the sun go down. Extraordinary. Our hosts Jennifer and Chris (as well as the chickens and goats) could not have been more welcoming. Thank you again! Ann and Scott
