About this home
Tucked away in a peaceful setting, this beautifully maintained home offers an exceptional combination of privacy, space, and stunning Puget Sound views.

The versatile lower level includes a large recreation room with potential for a fourth bedroom. Lovingly maintained by just two owners, the home also offers a spacious two-car garage and additional off-street parking.
