    What's special

    Coveted flat back areaExecutive media roomHeated towel rackSouthwest-facing estateEntertainment roomLuxurious primary suiteAmple street parking
    Discover a rare 5bed / 4.5 bath gem in the heart of Forest Heights. This southwest-facing estate captures breathtaking sunsets and territorial views from every level, offering exceptional privacy with no neighbors on three sides. Unlike typical hillside homes, this property features a coveted flat back area and level driveway, plus ample street parking—ideal for easy living and effortless entertaining. The fully reimagined 2026 chef’s kitchen blends timeless design with top-tier functionality. Elegant Cashmere Taj countertops pair beautifully with 2025 appliances that include Sub-Zero refrigeration and a 36” Miele induction range with built-in water line for steam baking. Designer Rejuvenation lighting adds warmth and style, while Brazilian Cherry hardwoods—refinished in 2026 with a sophisticated matte finish—flow throughout. Modern upgrades enhance comfort and efficiency, including a 6kWh solar system and three EV chargers. The luxurious primary suite features dual custom walk-in California Closets, a 2024 spa-like bath with heated floors, toto washlet, heated towel rack, automated Lutron blinds, and a custom shower all with premium Kohler Kallista fixtures. A dramatic curved staircase and soaring ceilings create a light-filled, grand interior. With approximately 5,100 SF, the home offers flexible spaces for every lifestyle, including an executive media room, entertainment room, and private home gym. The main floor has an ensuite bedroom w / full bath. Backing to designated green-space, the tree line renders the decks cool in the Summer while fall reveals the Cascade range from all three levels. Ideally located, a private trail leads through maple-lined woods to Forest Park Elementary in about 10 minutes. A rare opportunity to own a view-driven estate that combines privacy, flat outdoor living, and exceptional 2026 updates. [Home Energy Score = 5.
