5445 Blue Sky Way

This 2013-built Northwest Contemporary in the Skyview neighborhood gives you the room most rentals at this price just don't have. Open-concept main floor with a spacious kitchen that flows into the living room -- built for hosting holidays, hosting friends, or just hosting Wednesday-night pizza. Mudroom off the garage with full-size washer and dryer means muddy boots and gym bags don't make it past the door.
Upstairs, four bedrooms plus a huge upstairs family room/bonus space that easily functions as a fifth bedroom, home office, gym, or playroom. (Important: the home is legally permitted as 4 bedrooms -- the upstairs bonus room is not a code-defined bedroom but is being marketed as a versatile 5th room because of its size and use case. Take the tour and decide for yourself.) Storage everywhere. Closet space, linen space, real space -- not the "where do we even put the vacuum" kind of place. Outside, a covered patio for year-round PNW outdoor living and a fully fenced backyard for kids, dogs, or a garden you've been meaning to start. Sits on a corner lot with a generous front yard.

Easy commute -- minutes to I-5 Exit 260, quick to Bellingham, the Canadian border, and Mt. Baker. Ferndale School District.
