Modern Sanctuary in the Heart of West Seattle. Experience the ultimate "place apart" in this meticulously designed West Seattle sanctuary, where elevated multi-level architecture trades street-level noise for sun-drenched living spaces and sweeping southern territorial views. The interior defines Organic Modern luxury, featuring warm hardwoods, custom millwork, and granite finishes across a masterfully partitioned floor plan that separates vibrant entertaining areas from three private bedroom suites, each with its own dedicated bath. Solving the neighborhood’s biggest challenge, this home includes the "West Seattle Unicorn"—a secure private garage, extra storage, and additional off-street parking—all just moments from the California Junction’s Sunday Markets, premier dining, and the iconic salty breeze of Alki Beach. This is more than a house; it’s a serene escape that keeps you connected to the best of the West.
