Whidbey Island has long been a retreat for weekend warriors and day-trippers looking to take a break from mainland life.

For those looking to truly escape, this sprawling 14-acre compound offers an opportunity to run away and never come back.

The home at 2286 Shore Ave. is listed for a cool $4.95 million, making it the second-most expensive listing on Whidbey Island. It had been on the market for a little more than 24 hours as of Wednesday afternoon.

The property offers a 4,700-square-foot main home, plus a 744-square-foot guest cottage and an 894-square-foot garage. The primary home was built in 2003 and features pristine white walls, dark hardwood floors and a large outdoor living space with a wood-burning fireplace.

The home has a delightful nautical-feeling interior, and takes full advantage of its 225 feet of sandy, no-bank waterfront. The master suite opens up to a beach-side veranda and a spa.

The home looks out toward Useless Bay, which isn't as grim as it sounds. KUOW notes the bay got its name because it's so shallow that it's nearly dry at low tide. For those interested in the views and the beachcombing opportunities though, that shouldn't be a problem.

The home has four bedrooms and 3¾ bathrooms. You can see the full listing here.
