A standout opportunity on Mercer Island’s north end! Now offered at $1,750,000, this extensively updated 5-bedroom home delivers exceptional condition, everyday function and future upside. With 2,240 sq ft of cheerful living space, 2 beautifully updated baths and a large, flat 12,100 sq ft lot, the home is truly move-in ready today. The current floor plan does not include a dedicated primary suite, and the list price reflects that — creating an opportunity for a buyer to enjoy the home now and consider adding long-term value over time. Updates completed over the last three years include custom kitchen and bath cabinetry, solid-surface counters, GE Café and Fisher Paykel appliances, heated bathroom floors, custom tile and stone, quality fixtures, smart-ready electrical updates, newer PVC membrane roof, 96% efficient gas furnace, fast-recovery water heater, updated electrical panel, rebuilt chimney and interconnected smoke detectors. Fresh landscaping, a brand-new TimberTech deck with cable railing, vaulted ceilings, oversized windows and warm hardwood floors add style and livability. Convenient north-end location blocks to Northwood Elementary, MIHS, Boys & Girls Club, Mary Wayte Pool, parks and playfields, with quick I-90 access.
