Description

Tiki Mid-Century Modernism meets the Pacific Northwest in this extraordinary resort-style retreat, purposefully designed to maximize entertaining. From the French Polynesian roofline w/ exaggerated overhangs & a striking Columbia basalt rock chimney, the architectural brilliance is evident. An exposed-aggregate driveway leads to a versatile attached lanai-style carport & breezeway w/ original island tiled front porch. Step inside to the spacious sunken living room featuring an array of windows & gas log fireplace & built-ins w/ the adjacent dining room setting the stage for dinner parties. The great room/kitchen area w/ an additional gas fireplace is a favored space with floor-to-ceiling windows & double French doors, seamlessly transitioning to the pool/patio area. The sleek kitchen boasts an oversized skylight, quartz counters, a glass cooktop, & double wall ovens. The main-floor primary suite is perfectly situated to capture the views of the pool-especially lovely at night. A 2nd bedroom & laundry area are also on the main floor. Upstairs are two bedrooms with soaring cedar-planked ceilings - one showcases Puget Sound and Olympic Mtn views while the other overlooks the pool. You’ll find the ideal touches of reeded glass and plantation-style shutters, doors, & windows throughout. The versatile 3-car garage lends DADU potential. Set on a private 10,373 sq ft private lot backing to a greenbelt, the no-mow, mature rhodie-filled grounds are capped with your very own palm tree.
