This four bedroom
First Edition home crowns a ridge that offers the finest viewpoint on Mercer Island. The
stucco and wood exterior masterfully and seam- lessly introduce the traditional to the
contemporary. Extra-tall, glassed, double doors open into a place that takes your eye to a
magnificent horizon. The grandest architectural gesture is a lake view from every major
room, from Pritchard Island full range to a Northwest Seattle city view.
This prominent, wide open and light-filled home is juxtaposed |
by privacy and an
intimate, terraced, landscaped and completely fenced backyard. Gracefully designed and
using natural colored and textured walls, wood floors and carpets, the flow is intelligent
and easy. One suspended over tall pines and mature trees below. The sense is of being
suspended yet the structure is solidly constructed upon glacial till. The magic comes in
the interaction of the contemporary... an 18, high entry, clean lines and large spaces,
with the traditional... rich attention to |
detail on the wood
mantels, the use of marble, columns and elegance in wall textures. A large kitchen and
adjoining family room has a wood manteled fireplace as well as a double-door access to a
large deck creating a perfect communal gathering place any time of year. The spectacular
master suite uniquely includes extra-large closets, double showers, jet tub, storage
galore, large view and private windows and a skylight.
Simply a remarkable home. |
