About this home

Stunning Mt. Rainier, Cascade, and Lake Washington views from multiple levels in this beautiful 6-bedroom, 4-bath classic — originally built in 1942 and rebuilt in 1995 with a flowing, spacious modern floor plan. Set in one of Seattle's most desirable neighborhoods — peaceful, private streets lined with flowers and trees, top-rated local schools, minutes from the beach and athletic fields, the Burke-Gilman Trail, shopping, and dining. Freshly refinished hardwood floors, new carpet, new roof, new HVAC, and freshly painted interiors, decks, and patios make this home truly move-in ready. A dramatic two-story entry with soaring ceilings opens to the living and dining rooms with sweeping vistas, plus a main-floor office and guest bedroom. Upstairs, the primary suite and two additional bedrooms capture spectacular panoramas — from the master bedroom, its private deck, and even the master shower looks out on Mt. Rainier. Or visit the rare rooftop deck/widow's walk for yet another vantage point over the city, mountains, and water. The lower level offers two more bedrooms and a large bonus room — generous space for work, play, or guests. An oversized 2-car garage plus plentiful street parking handle vehicles and storage with ease. And the golden ticket: the new owners bypass the 12-year waitlist for the View Ridge Swim and Tennis Club —this friendly community's most coveted institution.
