Charming West of Market Home – Move in, Remodel or Build Your Dream Estate! A rare opportunity in Kirkland’s coveted West of Market neighborhood set on an expansive 10,800 sq ft view lot, this property features one of the area’s charming early homes from the Peter Kirk era, offering a unique blend of history, character, and extraordinary future potential. Enjoy sweeping 180° views of Lake Washington, the Olympic Mountains, and the Seattle & Bellevue skylines, where beautiful sunrises & glowing sunsets over Lake Washington create a breathtaking backdrop for everyday living. The existing home offers timeless character and presents several compelling opportunities: remodel, expand with a thoughtful addition that fully captures the panoramic views or design & build a new custom estate. With RS 7.2 zoning the lot provides flexibility for future development (subject to city approval/ buyer to verify) including signature luxury estate with two additional dwelling units, or four cottage homes. The current home may also provide rental income during the planning and permitting process. Ideally located a short distance to downtown Kirkland’s waterfront, Waverly Beach, and numerous parks, restaurants, and boutiques, and just minutes to downtown Bellevue. This property combines historic charm with one of the Eastside’s most desirable view settings.
