A rare architectural offering with commanding views of Lake Union, Portage Bay, the downtown skyline, & the Space Needle. This custom contemporary residence is a home that feels both artful & deeply livable. A signature curving radius roof & exposed glulam trusses give the home its unmistakable presence, while “walls of glass” frame ever-changing water, city, & skyline views. Inside, elevated materials & thoughtful details define the experience: ebony-stained oak hardwoods, vertical grain woodwork, custom built-ins, radiant heat, high-tech wiring, & a striking floating steel-and-wood staircase that anchors the home as an architectural centerpiece. This 5-bedroom, 4.5-bath residence features a family room, 2 media rooms, a library, & thoughtfully positioned guest bedrooms which offer privacy for visitors or extended stays. The gourmet kitchen appointed with European appliances blends functionality with refined design. This home offers potential for a future ADU, with a natural separate entrance creating flexibility for guest quarters OR multigenerational living. The primary suite unfolds as a private retreat suspended above the city and water, with sweeping views, & a spa-inspired bath creating a sense of quiet luxury. 2 additional bedrooms on the upper level offer loft spaces highlighting airy, light-filled spaces layered with architectural character. A once-in-a-lifetime residence where modern design, superior materials, and cinematic views come together high above the city.
