3969 Palomino Drive NE , Bainbridge Island, WA 98110 - Kitsap County

Enjoy sunsets and panoramic views of Puget Sound and the Olympic Mountains from nearly every room in this custom-built, original-owner home on Bainbridge Island’s prized South End. Nestled on a peaceful dead-end street with no homes across the street, this sundrenched, west-facing 1.28-acre property offers a rare sense of space, light, and serenity. A lush backyard unfolds toward sweeping western views, anchored by a charming gazebo on the lower lawn and framed by a partially covered view deck—perfect for year-round indoor-outdoor living. Antique lanterns from Hong Kong line the driveway, and fragrant jasmine greets you at the entry.

Inside, a thoughtful floorplan pairs drama and comfort with vaulted pine ceilings, cherry hardwood floors, and a soaring two-story living room with a wood-burning fireplace (plumbed for gas). Expansive windows throughout bring in light and expansive views, from the grand living and dining spaces to the open-concept kitchen and adjacent family room. The chef’s kitchen features a walk-in pantry, generous prep space, bar seating, and newer appliances including dual ovens, a Thermador gas cooktop with warming drawer, and a new dishwasher.

The main-level primary suite offers a tranquil retreat with deck access, a sitting area, walk-in closet, and a recently updated spa-like bath with heated floors, freestanding tub, walk-in shower, and heated towel rack. The home offers four bedrooms in total, smartly separated for privacy: the primary suite on the main, two additional upstairs bedrooms, and a guest suite above the garage with ensuite bath and kitchenette—ideal for visitors, live-in care, or multigenerational living.

Additional features include a dedicated office/den with built-ins, three walk-in bedroom closets, and a spacious mudroom/laundry connecting the kitchen to the oversized 3-car garage, which is wired for a Level-2 EV charger. System highlights include a forced air (ducted) heat pump, whole-house multi-zone audio, heated floors in both remodeled baths, CAT5 cabling, a dedicated subpanel for a generator, and an 80-gallon heat pump water heater with a recirculating pump system. Pre-inspected and beautifully maintained by the original owners, this home is move-in ready and a rare offering in a coveted setting.

Located just minutes from Lynwood Center and Pleasant Beach Village and a short walk to the Gazzam Lake trail network, this is Bainbridge Island living at its best.
