Located on one of the most charming and coveted streets in all of Seattle, this elegant and exceedingly comfortable Queen Anne home is quintessential Seattle, with a soul. Designed for both family living and entertaining, the home captures stunning views of Elliott Bay, Magnolia bluff and the majestic Olympic Mountains. Most notably, there is a view of water from every angle on the first floor and second floor master suite, office and roof top terrace. The flowing floor plan allows for both intimate and expansive spaces. Originally built in 1910, this historical gem was rebuilt with an eye for modern living, Green design and serious entertaining. While preserving warmth and livability, the redesign deliberately captures light throughout the day with high ceilings and a floor plan whose entry opens to a formal conservatory, dining room, living room and solarium. These living areas lead to a dramatic terrace, the perfect place to capture magnificent views of the sailboats on Puget Sound over a local microbrew, iced tea or evening cocktail.

From butcher block and granite counter tops to commercial grade Wolf ovens, range, large grill ??? and even a restaurant wok ??? the flavors of the world will come alive with the renowned seasonal bounty of Seattle???s farmers??? markets. The Salamander broiler is perfect touch to finish cr??me brulee or sear a steak to rival El Gaucho restaurant. A wine refrigerator, plumbed-in sparkling water and deep industrial sinks are just a few of the other gems rarely found in a home kitchen.Seattle Magazine published this kitchen in its Ultimate Food issue: ??????the kitchen is set up to accommodate the full range of entertaining possibilities, from intimate dinners with friends to small get-togethers for presidential candidates to a 150-guest fundraiser???The urge to experiment is almost overwhelming???It has to be one of only a few kitchens around with floor-to-ceiling views of Puget Sound and the Olympic range.???The media room and many family and guest bedrooms are designed as ensuites with showers, soaking tubs, sauna and waterfall shower. A private roof top terrace with a hot tub off the master suite is made for reading or sunbathing, with endless views of the Olympic and Cascade ranges, Puget Sound and the islands beyond.Exceptional views of the Sound also bring a gentle breeze that allows the home to be passive solar. The custom windows and ribbon wrap fa??ade cool the home. In winter the large double pane low-e windows draw the sun in and heat the home. And if a drop of rain should fall, the spa skylights close automatically. A large attached at-grade garage and landscaped yard with century-old trees also set this home apart.So close to downtown Seattle and Lake Union - yet a world away - this Northwest home is a treasure full of surprises that is best viewed in person.
