Note: Indoor sprinklers just installed. Forest Ledge sits on nearly four acres in exclusive Seahurst on the water facing Vashon Island. The Mansion, Built by Holister Sprague, Boeing's first lawyer, features the largest private pipe organ west of the Mississippi. The ballroom features super large arched wooden beams. high vaulted ceilings, and three pipe organ chambers. The ballroom is fully equipped as a theater where private movies are shown to Forest Ledge Guests once per month. The back lawn looks over Puget Sound with Vashon Island and the Olympic Mountains in the backdrop. Sunsets are spectacular. It is fun to watch the giant ships go by. On the South side of the property borders Eagle Landing Park and to the North is thick, dense forest. A path leads to the home's private beach. Whales and sea lions can be spotted in the water at any moment. Eagles nest in the nearby Parks. Clams can be had when the tide is out........drop crab pots for fresh dinner crab. A short walk to the North and you arrive at Seahurst Park. There is no traffic or airport noise because the property naturally slopes down to protect any unwanted noise. Massive steps lead to vast front lawn. Forest Ledge is the premium retreat for the musically gifted. The built in organ sits in the ballroom along with two grand pianos that have stayed with the house since its birth. The 1952 Bosendorfer is one of the finest pianos in the world plus the 1921 Steinway - both grand and fully restored. Another 1867 Steinway Square Piano stands in the living room - all fully restored and tuned perfectly for guests to play. The original oak floors are water heated. The bathrooms in the south suites feature heated tile floors. This is a very safe place to live. It is heaven to anyone loving music, arts, forest, and peace.
