Set high above the neighborhood, this View Ridge home is defined by expansive views of Lake Washington, the Cascades, and Mount Rainier, with living spaces and outdoor areas oriented to take it all in. The main level is light-filled and designed for connection, with open living, dining, and kitchen spaces that flow directly to a beautiful deck. Large windows bring in natural light while keeping the focus on the view. Upstairs, the primary level lives like a private retreat, with a spacious bedroom, spa bathroom, and expansive closet with in-unit washer and dryer. A dedicated office with custom built-ins and its own view offers a separate work space, while a flex area with custom glass tile allows light to filter through to the main floor below. The lower level offers a rec room, bedroom, bathroom, wine cellar, utility space, and access to a spacious, covered balcony. Terraced grounds feature irrigation, native plantings, hardscaping, water feature, and a distinctive fern wall—creating a sense of privacy and tranquility. Features convenient smart home systems with A/C and expansive three-car garage off the alley. A rare combination of view, versatility, and a peaceful, elevated setting in one of NE Seattle’s most delightful neighborhoods.
