Designed with intention. Priced with… a fresh perspective. This North Capitol Hill modern was always a showstopper—now it’s also a conversation starter. With a recent $340,000 price adjustment (yes, you read that right), opportunity is officially knocking… loudly. Perched above it all, the home captures sweeping views of Portage Bay, Lake Washington, and the Cascades, while maintaining the kind of privacy that feels rare this close to the city. Walls of glass blur the line between indoors and out, turning water, sky, and mountains into living artwork. Inside, clean lines and elevated finishes create a calm, refined backdrop for daily life—or for hosting those easy, memorable evenings with friends. Radiant heat, thoughtful systems, and a seamless connection to the landscape quietly do their job—making everything feel easy, comfortable, and just right. If you’ve been waiting for the right house—or the right moment—this might be both.
