the purdue house sits on victory hill, right downtown eastsound Walking distance to everything in town couldn’t be more convenient. On Victory Hill there is one other home across the roadway. This home is still in the building process however the remainder of the build is largely indoor, finishing work. The crew is very respectful of guests at the Purdue House.
wrap around windows give views of sweeping madrona and quaint bustling eastsound, tucked away just enough to be quiet and peaceful atop the hill
there is designated parking for purdue guests You may unload and load items at the front door. If you need to park more permanently closer to the front door this can be arranged with advance notice.

curious what we mean by quirky historic features?! just what you might expect in a 100 year old home As you approach the Purdue home you'll enter through a front entry rain porch, perfect for those PNW days. The house features all the modern amenities and upgrades necessary for a comfortable stay and you just can't miss the old charm character for a memorable stay. A noteworthy wood burning fireplace presents a striking brick accent wall in the airy kitchen. The bright kitchen windows wrap around into the living room providing ample views to town below. Noteworthy fixtures and features around the home will have you wondering what life may have been like in this very home years and years ago. Although we've straightened and aligned the couches, beds, pillows and chairs you might get the impression the home is slightly listing. It's not the local Orcas Winery "Bloom" wine you're enjoying playing tricks on you, the home does have a bit of a bowed effect..
