    What's special

    The spectacular beauty of one of the Pacific Northwest's most beautiful lakes greets you from nearly every room of this vintage modern home. Originally a custom home built for the mayor of Bellevue, the home is situated on 80 feet of no bank waterfront and enjoys sweeping views of Lake Sammamish and the foothills of the Cascade Mountains just on the horizon.  Located in the rarely available Sammavista community, this home offers a sandy beach, dock and a nearly 25,000 square foot lot...truly a place of rest and solitude! An open great room concept greets you at the entrance where views through the home to the Eastern Vista captivate the senses. The main level offers a recently modernized kitchen with slab granite countertops, custom cabinetry and top of the line appliances. Great beams span the entire footprint to offer a dramatic architectural detail. A wood burning fireplace adds a focal point to the main level living area which features floor to ceiling windows that highlight the lake view. Sliders lead to a spacious and inviting outdoor living area, perfect for summer entertaining or dining al fresco.  The main level also includes a 3/4 bath and utility room with pantry storage. The upper level master suite is oriented to meet the glorious sunrises of Lake Sammamish. The upper level also includes two additional sleeping quarters and a full hall bath. A bonus feature of this home is the two story garage with workshop, wood stove and parking for two cars. The grounds of this fine residence have been thoughtfully designed for privacy and enjoyment of the waterfront setting featuring a rarely found sandy beach for swimming and a coveted dock. The setting is home to a wealth of wild birds including Lake Sammamish resident bald eagles and myriad waterfowl. Majestic views, the waterfront resort lifestyle and a location just minutes from parks, world class City of Bellevue shopping, and both public and private schools that rank far above the nation's academic standard,  makes this residence an incredible value.
