Sweeping western views to Lake Washington await you in this carefully crafted First Hill residence! Over 4,000 square feet of light-filled interiors offer exquisite details at every turn...from wide plank hardwoods and custom built-ins to lofty, coffered ceilings basking in the glow of designer lighting. Host your next gathering in the great room with spacious living and dining areas flowing around the grand kitchen. Serious chefs will appreciate the built-in Wolf and SubZero appliances complemented by ample shaker-style cabinets, sleek slab granite surfaces, and a massive center island with bar seating. A beautifully appointed office with dual workspaces and library shelving completes the main level. Three bedrooms are all upstairs together, including your lake view primary suite with a dreamy walk-in closet and truly palatial ensuite bath. Watch sunsets sparkle over the water from your private balcony. Views continue through the landing to the second bedroom. The lower level was made for fun and fitness with a large rec room opening to an indoor/outdoor flex room enclosed by folding window walls. An adjacent workout room provides even more flex space, while the generous fourth bedroom is ideal for guests. Step out to the gated front lawn and level, fully fenced back yard. Set in Mercer Island's desirable "East Seattle" neighborhood, you're just minutes from the town center, top rated schools, and easy I-90 or light rail access to Seattle and Bellevue. 1 Year AHS Warranty!
