Property Description
Perched above Lake Washington, this beautifully maintained home offers panoramic water views stretching from Mount Rainier, Mercer Island, Seward Park, and the I-90 Bridge, with front-row views of the Blue Angels, Seafair hydroplane races, and the new light rail. Designed to maximize its stunning setting, double doors from the primary suite and the kitchen and dining area open to an expansive view deck for seamless indoor-outdoor living. Wake to lake views from the living room, kitchen, and primary bedroom. Rich mahogany-stained oak hardwood floors, updated windows, and abundant natural light enhance the home's timeless appeal. The versatile lower level offers excellent potential for multigenerational living, a guest suite, home office, or rental opportunity. A private, landscaped yard provides a peaceful retreat, while the property's exceptional upside includes the potential to add a second story and capture even more dramatic 180-degree Lake Washington views. Conveniently located near I-90, downtown Seattle, Bellevue, Mercer Island, parks, waterfront recreation, shopping, and dining, this is a rare opportunity to own a view home with privacy, flexibility, and outstanding long-term potential.
