Salmon Beach - Enough Said (10. June 2006, 05:24 by Derek Young) ~ It Doesn't Get More Waterfront Than This...
 |
I get a reasonable amount of emails from readers and passers-by on this website. Of those emails that ask about real estate, by far the most common question I get is, “Do you know how I can find out about homes on Salmon Beach?” Well… no, I don’t know that much about Salmon Beach. I like the place. I like the isolation, the water views, the apparent sense of community. So, to all you folks that have asked, here’s your chance. A decent looking place on the water. I would settle for a barely habitable shack on Salmon Beach. This is much better than than a simple shack. The deck is larger than some apartments I’ve lived in. You can’t get much more of a water view. The kayaks could be dropped right into the water… I like it.

Wow—I didn’t even know that place existed. What a price on this one, too! I wonder if it’s so relatively low because of the house’s inaccessability or if there’s something that needs fixing like the pilings holding it up?
I probably wouldn’t go for it, anyway, since it’ll be under water in 10 years with all that global warming stuff anyway. ;)

I am pretty sure this is an insurance companies worst nightmare. Remember what happened during the last earthquake? They constanly have mudslides. I think they had a big one a few months ago. I have also heard they have water/sewer issues..There are things you have to get used to.. Moving is by barge. Unless you think you can carry a sofa down, I think I counted 275 steps. Bringing the groceries in turns into your work-out for the week..
The area is awesome though. The views are outstanding..
And just think what your bottom side will look like!

When I went to a party at one of these shacks in the 80’s- someone told me that the “sewer” was the sound. Gross! For $550k, I hope that has changed…

“I think they’ve updated the sewer so it’s piped uphill now. Which is a good thing…”
...until the pump breaks.

Went there. Saw it. Absolutely a-m-a-z-i-n-g. I live in a “normal” house (by the edge not over) the water and would trade it in a flash for this one… ‘cept with my kids & dogs it’s just a little tight… The home is immaculate, and it appears- sold. Salmon Bch isn’t for everyone (that’s a good thing).
