A Georgian Estate by Charles Platt - one of America’s most revered architects - set on 7.26± bluffside acres in the gated Highlands. Regarded as one of the Pacific Coast’s finest examples of Georgian architecture. Inspired by the great country homes of Italy and France, Platt believed that beauty lay in symmetry, clarity, and balance. This estate brings those ideals to life through perfectly proportioned rooms and an effortless flow between architecture and landscape. The home unfolds with quiet drama. A grand, mural-adorned drawing room, paneled library, and formal dining room all frame panoramic views of Puget Sound and the Olympic Mountains. Every detail from soaring ceilings and acanthus-leaf cornices to herringbone hardwoods and a sweeping staircase reflects a profound understanding of classical design and timeless refinement. Olmsted’s vision of naturalistic beauty is reflected in the grounds. Open lawns stretch toward the bluff, while woodland paths weave through groves of mature trees and sculpted gardens. A tranquil pond anchors the landscape, and surrounding greenery creates a seamless connection between the residence and the land. It is a setting designed for both retreat and discovery. An extraordinary convergence of architecture, landscape and legacy - without precedent in the architectural history of the Pacific Northwest.
