Nestled on a quiet cul-de-sac above Lincoln Park, this cutting edge Northwest contemporary home was custom built for the current owners in 1961. Designed by noted architects Ibsen Nelson (designer of the Museum of Flight) & Gordon Varey (Dean,U of W School of Architecture, 1982-1992) to reflect the surrounding evergreen landscape and sweeping views of Puget Sound, it remains timeless and true to the original concept. Thoughtfully situated for privacy, maximum natural light and solar efficiency, the house is a refuge of calm in a busy world. Expansive windows, decks, patio and native landscaping make the transition from indoor to outdoor spaces seamless. Great blue herons and eagles are year round residents in this special place. Original features include stained glass, sliding Shoji screens, oak paneled walls in family room and living room and original refinished birch kitchen cabinets. Free standing stoves, one gas and one woodburning, will keep you toasty on a winter's evening. Decks perch in the treetops on the main floor and the lower level. Puget Sound views from every room in the house, including the spacious garage/shop! Huge attic offers tons of storage. Separate hobby room with fantastic natural light would be the perfect studio (and did I mention the view???) 2 blocks to Lincoln Park and Puget Sound; 'C' Line bus to downtown, 1 block.
