About this home

Rare Sunnyland commercial opportunity with established restaurant history. A unique opportunity to own a piece of Bellingham’s Sunnyland neighborhood history, the longtime home of the beloved HomeSkillet restaurant and, most recently, Homeschool BBQ. This distinctive commercial property offers an exceptional opportunity for an owner-user, restaurateur, or investor looking to establish a business in a location with strong local recognition and a built-in history of successful food and beverage use. HomeSkillet operated at the property for approximately 10 years and became a beloved Bellingham institution, known for its eclectic personality, comfort food, and community-focused atmosphere. The property subsequently continued as Homeschool BBQ, which operated from the same location from 2023 through April 2026. Located in the popular Sunnyland neighborhood, the property offers excellent visibility and convenient access to surrounding residential neighborhoods and nearby Bellingham amenities. The existing restaurant-oriented improvements and distinctive character provide a strong foundation for a new culinary concept, neighborhood gathering place, retail use, or other compatible commercial venture. With a memorable history, recognizable location, and the flexibility to bring a new vision to an established commercial space, 521 Kentucky St is an opportunity to create the next chapter of a truly unique Bellingham property.
