104 168th Avenue NE

Description

Come up over the rise and the noise falls away. Lake Sammamish glints below, evergreens close in around you, and the Hideaway reveals itself the way the best places do, slowly and only to those who arrive. From the street the home is modest and low. Inside it lifts, a classic Northwest contemporary with vaulted ceilings and skylights carrying light deep into every room, forest on all sides and a peekaboo glimpse of blue water. Four decks mean there is always somewhere to take your coffee, your book, your evening. Two bedrooms, one on each level, each with a private deck and a bath of its own. The upstairs primary is genuinely tucked away, quiet and entirely separate from the rest of the home. Off the stairs, an open office overlooks the level below, skylights above and a built in desk, a treehouse of a workspace. The interiors are original, and that is the whole opportunity. Finished homes here trade far higher. This one lets you build that value yourself. Two car garage, private drive, $375 dues, new roof 2022, exterior paint 2024, and fee simple ownership, so none of the condominium financing hurdles. Bellevue schools, Crossroads and Microsoft close by, minutes to the RapidRide B Line and 2 Line light rail. Homes in the Hideaway rarely come available, and almost never like this. Bring your vision. HOA dues include boat and RV storage.
