Welcome to Sequim & Port Angeles Real Estate, LLC

Waterfront property and beachfront property as shown in this photo of Freshwater Bay is available on the Olympic Peninsula east of Sequim all the way west of Port Angeles, but I know from my own clients’ experiences that you have to search for the needle in the haystack to find the perfect property with the view you want within your price range.
I’ve organized our current MLS listings in a couple of convenient categories for you. Here is a link to the MLS listings that have a waterview, at least according to the real estate agents who listed these properties. Realize that some agents will call a “peek-a-boo” waterview a water view. This list consists of 181 homes with some kind of water view, 3 bedrooms or more, and of course, these are all in Clallam County, and the second link includes a list of homes with the same parameters except these 91 listings claim to have both a water view and a mountain view:

And here is a list of 31 MLS properties that includes waterfront property in Clallam County, 3 bedrooms+, and all price ranges:

This beautiful Sequim water view home is elevated above Sequim Bay east of town with a feeling of privacy and acreage like a small park. I thoroughly enjoyed walking this property and viewing the inside of this home with the owners today, and I will post it as a brand new listing tomorrow in the MLS.
I’ve been showing Sequim water view homes to buyers coming to town over the last several months (yes buyers are looking at homes in the winter months), and many of the homes we have looked at have beautiful kitchens, but this kitchen is one of the best of Sequim kitchens. The double aluminum refrigerator is just flat gorgeous, but the island in the middle of the kitchen is definitely the centerpiece of this model kitchen.
This home is actually two stories with a third floor loft, although the main floor has everything for living, including a master bedroom. It has a total of 5,900 square feet on almost 3 acres. This house is listed at $799,000. Just behind this property and a little higher in elevation are two lost, each a little over 2.5 acres, an ideal site for a tremendous Sequim water view. These two lost are listed at $299,000.

Sequim waterfront property is in demand, and we do have some beautiful Sequim waterfront views. From east of Sequim to west of Port Angeles are beachfront, low and medium and high bluff, and panoramic water views from the mountains. Waterfront properties that would be one to three million dollars in California or on the Seattle waterfront may only be $200,000 to $500,000 here. But we are also away from the hustle and bustle of the I-5 corridor. Sequim is known as a Rain Shadow and as a retirement paradise.
This Sequim waterfront video is a vignette of the water views here, and I hope you enjoy the video and photos. I enjoyed taking these photos and videos over a period of several years.
How many waterfront and water view homes are for sale from Sequim to Port Angeles? Of course, the answer depends on the parameters you select for your Sequim MLS search, but here are some of the active listings for your viewing pleasure:
Sequim Waterfront Homes for Sale
One of the challenges buyers have when they are searching for waterfront property is that Realtors do not enter their listings with the same standards, and the Sequim MLS is not programmed for precise searching of similar water views. Let me explain this. When a Realtor enters a listing with a water view in the MLS, he or she has a couple of options when choosing parameters. The MLS gives us the ability to select from two major categories. Under the category “waterfront” are these choices: lake, none, pond, river, salt water, and stream. Under the category “views” we have “salt water” and “salt water and mountains.” If you search for “salt water” property, listings will not show up if they have been marked by the listing agent only as “sale water and mountains.” In addition, Realtors can select multiple combinations. This can make comparisons almost impossible for someone searching the online MLS from out of state. This is a fundamental programming glitch or shortcoming in the MLS in my opinion.
In addition to these multiple possibilities, Realtors define water views differently. What I would consider a “peek-a-boo” water view might show up on another Realtor’s listing as a “salt water view.” No two water views are the same, but the way listings are entered is not always the same either.
Between the different MLS parameters and the different ways Realtors choose to enter a listing, you can imagine that it is very hard, if not impossible, to do an accurate comparison of water views by searching the Sequim MLS online. One thing I do for clients is go take photos and sometimes videos of a water view so they can really narrow their search down before they arrive.
I hope you enjoy my Sequim waterfront video.

Sequim waterfront property with a panoramic salt water view is not as easy to find as one might think. We do live on the Olympic Peninsula, so one might think that Sequim waterfront is everywhere, and it is, but very few gorgeous medium bluff properties with a beautiful custom designed home are available for buyers. This is a brand new listing on East Sequim Bay, and it is so impressive, I knew I had to share this photo and video of this Sequim waterfront home. This home has one of the most stunning designs and floor plans of any home in the area. It was designed and built by a the owner’s son who was a master custom home builder in California. I will include a link to all the features in this home in the coming days as we get this home in the MLS and begin to promote it.
This property has a medium bluff, which has an inestimable value for its next owner. There is a danger in some high bluff properties. Let me explain, so you will know how valuable this medium bluff property really is. We have high bluff properties from east of Sequim to far west of Port Angeles, but some of these high bluff properties are 100 feet or more above a very steep bank. Now these bluffs are beautiful, but bluff stability is no small matter. I’ve talked with many homeowners on high bluff property, and one elderly woman said she had lived in her home on a high bluff (over 100 feet) for 30 years, and she had never lost any of the bluff in all that time. But we all realize that one could lose some portion or a little of a steep bluff at some point, so a stable and medium bluff is really the ideal property.
This beautiful custom designed home is a Sequim waterfront home on a medium bluff approximately 30 feet above the water. And the bluff is not steep and has a lot of vegetation growing on it, which obviously increases bluff stability with all the roots. In addition there are some trees on the bluff and this bluff is probably one of the most stable on the entire Sequim Bay. But the view is stunning from the back yard and the deck of this home. I’ll post more details with a link to the full data sheet on this home, so check back here soon. The listing price is $725,000.

Sequim Bay water view property is hard to find. It is rare that a homeowner sells a home right on the water, whether it is beach frontage or high bluff property. One of the premium Sequim Bay water view areas is undoubtedly East Sequim Bay, and this home has a stunning panoramic water view with a bluff that is roughly 30 feet above water.
This is one of the most beautiful homes in the entire Sequim area, and since so many of my buyer clients want a Sequim Bay water view, it is likely this home will sell fairly quickly. Many people think that homes don’t sell in these “slow winter months,” but they do, just not as many. I sold a home last weekend, and I have two qualified buyers coming to look at homes in December. This home is 2,700 square feet, 3 bedrooms and 3 baths with a stone fireplace and window frontage that takes full advantage of the Sequim Bay water view. There are two master suites on the first floor and a three car garage. It was built by a custom home builder who built this home for his mother and father, and you can be sure he built with attention to quality design and construction.
[You might also want to see this video of a 5,900 square foot home on 3 acres overlooking Discovery Bay at Discovery Bay Home for Sale. and you can see more photos and information on this home at Discovery Bay Water View.]
This is a new listing and I’ll have more photos and a real video tour up soon. There are not many homes like this anywhere on the water front on the Olympic Peninsula. This Sequim Bay water view home is worth looking if you love a great water view.

Sequim water view lots are one of our chief attractions on the Olympic Peninsula. We are surrounded by water, but that doesn’t mean Sequim water view lots are a dime a dozen. They aren’t. But we do have some stunning water views of the Strait of Juan de Fuca.
We have incredible water view lots, and some high bluff water view lots from east of Sequim to the west of Port Angeles. Today a client called from Alaska to ask about a high bluff water view lot. This lot happened to be west of Port Angeles just west of Joyce. This client asked if I would walk the lot for him. This is something I offer to do for my clients, and since he is in Alaska, he can’t jump on a plane to see one lot that may not be what he is looking for.
Here’s what happened. I told my client I would go walk the lot right away, and call him from the lot. He loved that idea. I drove from Sequim to this lot west of Joyce, a 45 minute drive. I located the lot and got my client on the phone. I said, “Okay, I’m your eyes and boots on the ground. What would you like to know?” I described the property, it’s location and distance from Port Angeles, the water view and bluff stability, the neighborhood, the rainfall in that area, the driveway and the driving time from Port Angeles. We talked about the clearing and excavation that would be needed to prepare for a site plan for their retirement home, the utilities, the well and septic, and the approximate costs of all these things.
This is the kind of conversation I like to have with clients, where I help them with valuable real-time information about Port Angeles or Sequim water view lots.
We already had talked about the cost of construction per square foot to build a home in this area, so this Alaska client became pretty familiar with what this lot looked like and what it would take to build a home.
I don’t know how many other Realtors act as your eyes and boots on the ground, whether you are looking at Port Angeles or Sequim water view lots or buying an existing home, but I love doing this for clients, and they tell me it is immensely helpful. If you need a better feel for the property than you can grasp from the online MLS photos and virtual tour, just give me a call or shoot me an email.
Your Port Angeles or Sequim water view lots agent at your service.
