Welcome to 5617 Old Settler Drive, tucked into one of Ferndale's most desirable neighborhoods and offering something rare: a private community park reserved for residents. A rocking-chair front porch sets the tone. Inside, a gracious sitting room greets you at the entry before the home opens into a light-filled great room, where vaulted ceilings and a true open-concept layout keep the kitchen, dining, and living spaces beautifully connected. Natural light fills the main level from morning to evening. Granite counters and generous prep space make the kitchen a natural gathering point, whether you're hosting a crowd or enjoying a quiet night in. The main-floor primary suite is the layout everyone asks for and few homes deliver. Three additional bedrooms and 2.5 baths total provide flexible space for guests, hobbies, or a home office. Then there's the backyard, and it truly is incredible. Level, flat, and exceptionally private, it's anchored by a spacious deck and patio made for summer barbecues, morning coffee, and long evenings outdoors. Wide-open lawn and privacy fenced on all sides make it equally suited to entertaining or unwinding. Usable corner to corner, it's the yard buyers picture and rarely find. Add the private neighborhood park, established streets, and quick access to schools, shopping, I-5, Bellingham, and the Canadian border, and this one checks boxes most homes can't. Homes in this neighborhood don't last. Schedule your private tour today.
