Perched high above street level on a quiet Gregory Heights culdesac, this thoughtfully updated PNW Contemporary captures sweeping views of Puget Sound, Mount Rainier and lush terrain from both levels. A dramatic vaulted entry with wood-clad ceilings and stone flooring sets the tone, while original stained-glass lighting and select vintage details celebrate the home's 1970s roots. Curated updates-including fresh interior & exterior paint, custom lighting, updated fixtures and modern finishes-blend seamlessly with the home's original character. The main level offers a spacious primary suite, 2 additional bedrooms, generous living & dining spaces and direct access to a view deck spanning the length of the home. Expansive windows frame ever-changing vistas, colorful sunsets and frequent bald eagle sightings. The lower level provides exceptional flexibility with a large family room, fourth bedroom, full bath, dedicated flex space ideal for an office, gym, or studio and abundant storage. Multiple living spaces allow the home to live larger than its 2,800 sf. Other recent improvements include a new roof, all new energy-efficient windows and sliding doors, wide-plank LVP flooring, updated appliances and new garage doors/openers. Mature landscaping, productive kiwi vines and fig trees, and a welcoming neighborhood community create a setting that feels both private and connected. Minutes to Seahurst Park, Three Tree Point Beach, dining, shopping, and Sea-Tac Airport.
