Our original Mercer Island home, which we thoughtfully remodeled and loved for many years, will be available for rent August 1st.
It's a warm, light-filled, mid-century modern house that has everything you will want: 4 bedrooms (including a master with en suite), 2.5 bathrooms, great room concept, a large chef's kitchen, 900 square foot walk-out daylight-basement rec room, partially-covered deck overlooking the large, fully landscaped lot with a fire circle and huge grass area.
The neighborhood is the real story. West Mercer Elementary (rated 9/10, GreatSchools) is a short walk our kids made that walk every day. Mercer Island's downtown shops, cafes, restaurants, and the light rail station are also easily walkable. M.I.'s summer farmers' market is just around the corner. Multiple parks are within easy reach. It's an incredibly sweet, family-oriented neighborhood on M.I.'s north end.
