About This Property

Tucked high among the trees in Twin Peaks, this storybook cabin feels like something pulled straight from a dream. Once owned by renowned artist and decorator Christine McConnell, the home still carries her unmistakable touch-layered with whimsy, warmth, and unforgettable vintage charm.

Sunlight pours through nearly every corner of the home, creating a magical atmosphere that perfectly complements the surrounding forest setting. Thoughtfully updated while preserving its authentic cabin soul, blending character with modern comfort in all the right ways.

Set across 5 lots totaling approximately .42 acres, the property offers an uncommon sense of space and privacy surrounded by evergreens and expansive treetop views. Perched up high above the landscape, the setting feels peaceful, secluded, and deeply connected to nature.

The layout offers 2 bedrooms, 2 full baths, a cozy living area anchored by a fireplace, and a charming kitchen that opens to a sunny back deck made for slow mornings. Upstairs, the dreamy primary suite feels like a private retreat of its own, complete with soaking tub and walk-in closet. On the lowest level, a flexible private space currently used as a 3rd bedroom.

With three separate decks to choose from, every moment here invites you to slow down, breathe deeper, and fully escape into the mountains. Whether you're curled up by the fire, entertaining under the trees, or simply soaking in the stillness, this property delivers the kind of feeling buyers are always searching for-but rarely find.

Offered fully furnished with the most delightful of antique finds, the property is also an active short-term rental with permit in place, making it as compelling an investment opportunity as it is a personal getaway. Equal parts enchanting, cinematic, and cozy, this is a cabin that leaves an impression long after you've gone.

Step beyond the sunlit veranda and into a story only a few have lived. Originally curated and handcrafted by artist and designer Christine McConnell, this extraordinary home blends gothic romance, mid-century charm, and artisan craftsmanship across every inch — from its hand-painted “wallpaper” to its vintage kitchen. Each room carries a distinct personality: a velvet-draped living room with hidden secrets, a sun-drenched retro kitchen with original appliances, a formal dining room bathed in gold tones, and a dreamy, light-filled primary suite with custom-painted details. Even the separate guest suite — accessible via a secret trapdoor or its own private entrance — evokes the charm of a bygone era. Set on an expansive 18,523 square foot lot, this rare beauty from 1937 offers rare seclusion and presence in a neighborhood of more modest parcels. Framed by towering trees and three wide decks, the home feels worlds away — yet remains entirely grounded in its thoughtful design. Lovingly preserved and thoughtfully updated, the home offers a rare chance to own a piece of living artwork. A true icon, it served as the original filming location for the pilot episode of The Curious Creations of Christine McConnell and continues to enchant guests and fans alike. This is not just a house. This is a curated experience — a collectible — ready for its next caretaker. May be available furnished, for those who understand its magic.
