Here is a unique opportunity to own a Pacific Northwest Contemporary masterpiece by renowned architect John Storrs – A very special home on a very special 1.2 acre property. Extensive, well appointed updates combine with the designer’s incredible vision to make this a wonderful place to call home.
Storrs was known for his attention to and incorporation of a site’s natural features, a characteristic showcased as you are greeted by the babbling creek running alongside and then under a vaulted wing of the building.
Inside, the 3,500 sqft main floor includes a bright, vaulted ceiling living room, open layout gourmet kitchen, breakfast nook, and family room looking out large windows and opening up to an expansive cedar deck and covered gazebo. A stunning master-on-the-main features two walk-in closets, sky-lit master bath, gas fireplace, office space, and a plant-filled glass atrium with soaking tub.
The second floor includes five bedrooms with two full baths and large bonus room. The finished lower level has a media room and game/entertaining space with bar, vintage Brunswick pool table, custom dart board, and impressive wine cellar with 13th century European monastery door.
Enjoy the secluded and magical grounds on a beautifully landscaped 1.2 acre lot with multiple outdoor living spaces, natural creek and water feature, grass lawn, expansive clear cedar decks, winding nature path, and +1,000 sqft detached garage with shop. Separate 0.3 acre flat buildable lot (currently utilized as lawn) with ~$300k market value provides options down the road to build, sell, or enjoy as-is.
