Entertain in style thanks to inviting formal living, enjoy the benefits of having a large well-appointed kitchen, and make sure not to miss this home’s 5 bedrooms that are brimming with possibilities! A whole other world of wonder beckons from the sprawling backyard—gardening, outdoor dining, and relaxation out in the fresh air are all in your future.

The vaulted entryway makes for a lasting first impression; the grand staircase and stone-accented floors nod to this home’s 1970s origins. Warm and welcoming, the sunken living room with its stately fireplace is a lovely atmosphere to relax and visit with guests, or simply enjoy a quiet afternoon reading alongside the cozy fire. (A heat pump also helps keep things comfy all year long.) And when it’s time for dinner, the adjacent formal dining room is an entertainer’s delight—there’s room to host a crowd at your next dinner party or special occasion!



From the kitchen, the rest of the main level unfolds. Even more living space beckons with the large family room with a fireplace, another sunlit living area with direct patio access, and the dining nook alongside the kitchen. The dialed-in kitchen is at the heart of it all, and it’s a cook’s dream come true! Stainless steel appliances, granite counters with ample room to spread out, and abundant cabinetry storage are all ready to help inspire your next culinary creation.



Each bedroom is a canvas waiting to be brought to life with your personal style and vision. And a double garage provides even more possibilities. There really is room for it all, whether you decide to design the hobby room, home office, fitness center, playroom, or art studio you’ve always wanted!



Discover park-like Pacific Northwest beauty in the backyard getaway. The brick patio offers more than enough room for an outdoor dining set and outdoor living area; set up lounge chairs for sunbathing, and host garden parties and BBQs all summer long. Established landscaping surrounds, and if you’d like to put your green thumb to work, there’s plenty of room to plant your favorite flowers and shrubs. Plus, a shed helps to keep all of your gardening tools organized.
