I love this house. You’ll probably love it, too, if you appreciate what you read here… In its heyday, I’ll bet it was considered top notch – the bees knees, if you will. Some materials & finishes used when this house was built are clearly better than average. And it didn’t end there. Over time, some improvements were made, also above average. Let’s start on the main level. Enter the front door into a welcoming foyer. Turn left into the kitchen, which offers ample counter space & stainless appliances along w/ a cozy dinette. From the kitchen, enter the family room w/ an ambient & functional fireplace, which flows to a formal dining room and continues to the formal living room. All three rooms embrace generous sizes and capture tranquil views, also enjoyed from a new deck. The primary BR allows a big bed & big furniture, and includes a big cedar lined closet. The bath has a walk-in shower. The 2 other BRs on this floor aren’t small. One is set up nicely as an office at this time. And there’s something very cool about the hall bath. The laundry room gains access to a ½ bath, the garage and stairs down. A 2nd kitchen, separate outside entrance and sizable living spaces suggest an in-law suite on this level. And wait’ll you see all the versatile storage space offered. The gate also encloses a private lot w/ lush vegetation and a 2nd detached garage. The locale of this gem? Ideal! A short drive to the popular Olalla Bay Market, Highway 16 or the Southworth Ferry.

From the moment you turn into the private driveway, there’s a feeling you’ve found something special. Surrounded by beautiful, mature landscaping on 1.01 acres, this one-owner home reflects years of thoughtful care, pride, and meticulous maintenance in a quiet, low-traffic setting. Step inside and you’ll feel the warmth of a home that has been truly loved. Formal living and dining rooms offer inviting spaces for holidays and gatherings, while wooded views from the main living areas create a peaceful backdrop. Hardwood flooring enhances the kitchen and main bedrooms. With 5 bedrooms and a rare 5-bedroom septic system, the layout provides exceptional flexibility and room to live comfortably. The large family room is anchored by a cozy woodburning stove — perfect for cool Northwest evenings. Three operable skylights invite natural light and fresh air. The kitchen was remodeled in years past and designed for someone who loves to cook. While not reflective of today’s ultra-modern trends, it offers abundant custom cabinetry, extensive storage, a cozy eating nook, Jenn Air range creating a highly functional, chef-inspired workspace along with an adorable breakfast nook. Step outside to the large private deck, an ideal spot for morning coffee overlooking the established, wooded setting. University Point is located in a quiet Central Kitsap neighborhood, just outside the community of Illahee, convenient to either Bremerton or Silverdale as well as military bases and Seattle Ferry.
