First Impression
The estate announces itself before you even reach the front door.
A double wrought-iron gate opens to a secluded waterfront retreat surrounded by mature evergreens, lush landscaping, and enough privacy to make you forget downtown Seattle is just across the water.
The shoreline is the star. The home sits remarkably close to Puget Sound, creating the feeling that the water begins just beyond the windows. Ferries drift by throughout the day, while Mount Rainier rises in the distance on clear mornings.
Inside The Home
The main living area feels designed around the view.
Vaulted ceilings with exposed beams create a sense of scale, while massive windows perfectly frame the Seattle skyline like a living painting.
The kitchen flows seamlessly into the great room.
A large island with seating for four anchors the space, while a second island provides even more room for entertaining. Wolf appliances and custom finishes give the room a polished feel without making it feel untouchable.
The primary suite functions as its own private retreat. The spa-like bathroom features a soaking tub, oversized walk-in shower, and direct access to a waterfront patio where morning coffee comes with front-row views of Puget Sound.
Downstairs, the media and game room adds another layer of entertainment space, complete with its own kitchen setup and easy access to outdoor gathering areas.

Property taxes on the estate totaled $44,856 in 2024.
Final Take
There are waterfront homes with a view. Then there are homes where Mount Rainier and Puget Sound become part of the decor.
