Designed for light, rooted in nature and touched by views of Lake Washington and Mt. Rainier. A true Northwest Contemporary, thoughtfully designed to bring the outdoors in and capture ever-changing natural light. Well-built and beautifully maintained, this home reflects the warmth and character of its surroundings. The main level showcases vaulted cedar-lined ceilings and a dramatic living room with lake views, creating a warm and inviting gathering space. The dining area connects seamlessly to the kitchen and expansive family room, designed for everyday living with built-in desks and effortless flow to oversized decks—perfect for entertaining or relaxing among greenery and filtered views. Also on the main level: a powder room, utility room, and two bedrooms with charming lofted bonus spaces, sharing a full hall bath. Upstairs, the vaulted primary suite offers a private retreat with an en suite bath, a loft-office, and large windows framing Mt. Rainier. The lower level expands functionality with 4th bedroom, ¾ bath, recreation room, sauna, and substantial storage. A spacious 3-car garage adds everyday convenience. Ideally located mid-island near Ellis Pond, the library, trails, and parks—this is a wonderful opportunity to experience Pacific Northwest living.
