Sandra White: January 2012

Incredible site of private  2/3 acres with unobstructed view of Admiralty Bay,  shipping lanes, mountains and city lights stretching out beyond the perfect garden setting.  Located on a corner lot in the popular community of Kala Point, just 10 minutes south of Port Townsend.  This home is of finest quality and priced far below cost to replace.   Wall of windows to enjoy the views, wood flooring and trim, open sunny kitchen with granite counter tops  and stainless steel high end appliances. 

Great lay out with spacious rooms, high ceilings, separate guest quarters, view  deck, garage, shop and green house.   So many features, including drought resistant landscaping, quiet cul de sac, patio, gated community with clubhouse, pool, beach, tennis and walking trails.  Asking price is $795,000

Still very much a Buyer's Market here in our little corner of the Pacific Northwest.  Residential sales for 2011 were down by just about 2% over 2010, and prices overall declined by about 9%. (Average statewide as well. ) REO properties accounted for about 20% of all residential sales.  Most popular price range was $150,000 to $350,000.

Of the 4 major companies in the area,  John L Scott Port Townsend was the top selling agent with the highest number of residential sales with about 25% more sales than the closest competitor.
