5 Washington Homes with Acreage, Waterfront Views, and Penthouse Living

Set on 1.5 acres in Kennewick, this two-story residence in Clodfelter Heights pairs space and privacy with panoramic scenery. Built in 2005, the layout is designed for everyday ease: generous living areas filled with natural light, a main-level primary suite for quiet retreat, and additional bedrooms upstairs. A standout upstairs family room—framed by creatively placed windows—invites movie nights, homework sessions, or slow mornings with coffee and a view. Outdoors, the setting turns decidedly leisurely, with a heated pool and a firepit/hot tub area made for evenings under a skyful of stars. A back patio positioned to help protect from the wind keeps outdoor dining comfortable. Two matching 50×40 shops with separate entrances, high doors, and 200-amp power join an oversized attached three-car garage for serious flexibility.

Along the water’s edge in Friday Harbor, this well-maintained rambler unfolds across two peaceful acres with pond frontage and access to Sportsman’s Lake. Inside, an open floor plan keeps daily life easy and connected, anchored by a gas fireplace and a kitchen finished with stainless appliances and natural stone countertops. Step outside to a deck that looks out over tranquil water views—an inviting backdrop for slow mornings and unhurried evenings. Practical comforts are thoughtfully included, from a 3-car garage to productive garden beds and established fruit trees that bring the landscape to life through the seasons. With a vacation rental permit already in place, the property also offers flexibility for those who want to balance retreat-like living with an additional use. Here, the pace feels quietly intentional, shaped by land, water, and room to breathe.
