Arrivva Listing Tour: A 4.4-Acre Custom-Built Retreat on Bainbridge Island
In this walkthrough, Fred Glick tours a 4.4-acre custom-built property on Bainbridge Island with the homeowner, Jeremy, who designed and built the home with his wife after searching for a piece of land to build "in the middle of nature."

Jeremy walks Fred through the custom kitchen and open-concept living space, both primary bedroom wings, the fully independent downstairs residence (legally an ADU), the oversized garage with dual EV charging, and then out into the grounds: hundreds of native trees, a private pond and waterfall, a spring-fed water system, walking trails, an orchard, and direct beach access on Murden Cove. Along the way, Jeremy shares the sustainability-minded decisions behind the build, from modular upstairs construction to insulated concrete slabs to a drought-tolerant EcoLawn.
