Perched gracefully on a lush Mercer Island, this sanctuary seamlessly pairs architectural elegance with sweeping panoramic views of Lake Washington. Designed to embrace natural light, the main level features an open-concept flow framed by massive picture windows, a glass solarium extension, and a grand two-story entryway. The light-filled interior transitions effortlessly into a cozy firelit living space, adjacent wet bar, formal dining room, and dedicated home office. At the center of the home, the chef’s kitchen shines with granite countertops, double wall ovens, and a central gas island. French doors open directly onto an expansive, multi-tiered outdoor deck complete with cable railings, built-in bench seating, and terraced gardens. Upstairs, the primary sanctuary offers breathtaking water vistas, a custom walk-in closet, and a spa-inspired bath with a corner jet tub and private balcony access. Generous guest bedrooms featuring built-in bookcases and window seating, along with a three-bay garage and full laundry room, complete this remarkable retreat.
