    What's special

    Classic Tudor Revival in Montlake, on a tree lined street just up from Portage Bay and the Yacht Club. This incredible home was built to demonstrate the quality of red cedar as a smart building material by architect Samual Anderson in 1926. Interior awash in custom woodwork, a grand spiral staircase and two story entry. Spacious and bright living room with incredible windows, grounded by a fireplace. Formal dining leads to kitchen. Arched doorways. Unspoiled, lovingly restored millwork. Hand scraped trim demonstrates the exceptional care this home exudes throughout. Unique, period details will intrigue you as you walk through the grand spaces. 3 beds up, w/full bath. Lower level partially finished. Patio, 2 car garage, lush landscaping.
