Comments
Magnificent brick colonial estate with gated entry and paralyzing easterly views of Lake Union, Gasworks Park, Cascades and beyond. Why go to Canlis for the view, when you can look down on it? Located on a dead-end street, this fabulous residence boasts impressive formal gardens including a beautiful water fountain at the front door, acres of lawn and private spaces. It is also located just four blocks from the exclusive, private Country Day school. The interior of the home is replete with gorgeous mahogony doors, trims and crown moldings, all in pristine condtion. The living room can easily accommodate a concert grand piano and has a gas fireplace and hardwood floors. The view from the dining room is so astounding, you will have trouble concentrating on your food! What a perfect vantage point to view the Fourth of July fireworks or the sailboats on Lake Union. The kitchen is quite large with marble counters and Viking range top, Sub-Zero refrigerator and Miele dishwasher.There is a modern powder room off the entry and also a very atttractive den with custom cherry mantel and bookcases added by the owner. Both first and second levels feature gleaming hardwood floors. The open staircase leads to a generous second floor that has three bedrooms and three full baths, most of which are oriented to the astounding view. Years ago, the owner combined two bedrooms into one large master suite with private, view balcony and newer gas fireplace. This room runs the full width of the residence. The lower level is mostly finished with a spacious family room featuring birch paneling and a classic,1950's wet bar. There is a three quarter-bath on this level as well as a large laundry room. Another surpirse of this home is the double garage which also has an amazing view. You don't even have to get out of the car to enjoy it since it is mostly windows. Most of the lot is walled and access is controlled by electric gates for entrance. If an easterly view is not enough, there is even a very impressive NW view looking towards the Olympic Mountains and the Locks and Ballard bridge. What more could you ask for? This home has a commanding and presitigious feel which exemplifies good taste and style.
