Edgefield Farmhouse by AvantStay | Hot Tub + Firepit + 5 Private Acres | Trailhead + Forts Nearby

Five private acres at the end of a private road, with an 86-acre nature preserve for a next-door neighbor: Edgefield Farmhouse trades the pace of the mainland for open sky, quiet ground, and coastal scenery that starts where the driveway ends. Wooden beams run the length of the ceilings, a character stove anchors the living space, and the whole house carries an easy farmhouse warmth. Central heating and A/C keep all six guests comfortable whichever season you catch the island in. The main living areas are built for togetherness and for slipping away. The kitchen comes fully equipped — a complete cookware set, serving platters, and all the everyday essentials — and opens onto a large island with barstool seating, right for a slow breakfast or staging a group dinner. Gather in the living room, then drift to the second sitting area when someone wants a book and a little quiet. There's a dedicated desk too, a real perk for remote workers, students, or anyone clearing a few emails before heading back outside. In-home laundry keeps longer stays simple, and the small details land well: Grown Alchemist bath amenities, a filtered-water pitcher, and a stash of board games for the kind of gray, drizzly afternoon the Pacific Northwest does so well. The layout suits a small group or two families sharing. A king waits in the primary bedroom, with two queen rooms alongside it, each with its own ensuite bath, so nobody's standing in the hall waiting for a shower. Outside is where the property really opens up. The hot tub is the natural after-dinner draw, and between the outdoor dining setup and the firepit, long evenings under the trees become the default. The home sits just above the parking area for Admiralty Inlet Preserve, where the Walking Ebey's Trail System begins. Head one direction and the path winds through Ebey's Prairie past working farmland, boardwalks, water views, and the Olympic Mountains standing across the inlet. Head the other and you're into old-growth coastal forest along a high bluff, with peekaboo views of Admiralty Inlet and the sound of waves never far off. For all that seclusion, Coupeville is a ten-minute drive up the road, and it's a quietly captivating place — one of the oldest towns in Washington. Its historic waterfront and landmark wharf sit right on Penn Cove, the same sheltered water the region's celebrated mussels come from, and Front Street is an easy stroll end to end, lined with galleries, shops, and cafés. Closer to home, Fort Casey State Park is barely a mile off, with historic gun batteries, the Admiralty Head Lighthouse, and a driftwood beach. Fort Ebey adds miles of forest and coastal trail about fifteen minutes north, and the bluff trail at Ebey's Landing is right there as well, serving up some of the finest views on the island: open water on one side, rolling farmland on the other. Push a little further and you'll find Greenbank Farm to the south and the bridge-spanned cliffs of Deception Pass State Park at the island's north end, roughly half an hour up SR 20. When you'd rather leave the island entirely, the Port Townsend ferry loads a couple of miles south. Edgefield Farmhouse is a proper island retreat — room to breathe, quiet to spare, and the best of Whidbey close enough to reach on a whim.
