PROPERTIES FOR SALE

Some homes are just a place to sleep. This one is a basecamp. Tucked into the heart of Coulee City, this charming 3-bedroom, 1-bath home has been well cared for and sits just steps from one of the Pacific Northwest's best-kept outdoor secrets. The seller loads up the golf cart with the paddleboard and is on the water in a few minutes — and you can be too. Banks Lake, a 27-mile reservoir widely regarded as one of the premier bass fisheries in the Northwest, is right down the road, along with world-class walleye, rainbow trout, perch, kokanee, and crappie fishing year-round. Summer is for the boat. Winter is for the ice. There's no bad season here. When you're not on the water, Steamboat Rock State Park, Dry Falls, and Sun Lakes are practically neighbors. Kayak through basalt canyon walls. Hike to the top of an ancient volcanic formation. Watch bald eagles work the shoreline in winter. This corner of Eastern Washington rewards the people who find it. Inside, the home has been updated where it counts — vinyl plank floors, double-pane windows, pellet and electric heat, and a full appliance package including washer and dryer. The metal roof means low maintenance for years to come. There's outbuilding space for all your gear, a fully fenced rear yard, and room to breathe without the price tag of the coast. At under three hours from Seattle, Spokane, or Wenatchee, this is the weekend property you stop renting and start owning
