Nestled in the heart of Canterbury, this private retreat was designed for the kind of living Seattle does best; effortless indoor-outdoor connection, sun-filled spaces, and unforgettable summers in Madison Park. Mostly one-level living unfolds with ease, where soaring ceilings and expansive south-facing windows bathe the interiors in natural light throughout the day. Formal and informal spaces flow beautifully together, equally suited for lively poolside gatherings, casual dinners from the outdoor kitchen, or quiet mornings overlooking (or playing in) the lush, ever-evolving gardens. Step outside and discover a true backyard sanctuary; newly installed pool, turf lawn, curated landscaping, and multiple destinations to lounge, dine, and entertain. The scale feels both open and intimate, creating a home that lives comfortably year-round. Tucked moments from Madison Park, Madison Valley, Madrona, neighborhood parks, waterfront access, and beloved local cafes and restaurants, this location offers the rare balance of serenity and connection. Current owners thoughtfully renovated the exterior and grounds, including new doors, windows, siding, roof, and extensive landscape improvements, blending timeless style with modern ease. A commuting dream with easy access to downtown or the Eastside.
