From the moment you pull in the driveway, classic Pacific Northwest charm absolutely surrounds you. Neat landscaping, mature greenery, and views of the pristine golf course that stretch on into the distance set the scene, while this lovingly maintained 1976-built home is ready for all that life brings you way. As soon as you step in through the upper level entrance, the sundrenched living room immediately greets you and makes for a memorable first impression. This window-wrapped room offers dreamy views of the lush golf course, and a wood fireplace with floor-to-ceiling brick accents and a classic hearth anchors the space. Host guests in style, or simply relax and snuggle up by a roaring fire on a chilly evening this winter!

This palatial home was designed with entertaining in mind, and you’ll find even more dynamic, inviting space in the large kitchen. The warm and welcoming atmosphere has room for everyone, whether you’re enjoying appetizers around the kitchen island or gathered in the dining area. The kitchen boasts stainless steel appliances, double ovens perfect for cooking for the holidays, and abundant storage and counter space. Additionally, direct access to the wrap-around deck ensures that you can grill up dinner and host outdoor get-togethers with ease!

The upper level also features 3 bedrooms (all with deck access!), and while each bedroom boasts a spacious layout and top-notch comfort, the primary suite is especially not to miss! In addition to an extra-large layout and deck access, this retreat offers a huge walk-in closet and a gorgeous ensuite ¾ bath. A fresh aesthetic in the bath awaits, with intricate tile detailing adding elegance and style.

On the lower level, even more versatile space awaits, including another entrance and its own family room. This home’s unique layout promises flexibility; multi-generational living is convenient here, or you can use any extra space as a guest suite for visitors, a home office, a hobby room, fitness center, and much more.

Spending time out in the sunshine and the fresh air is extra enjoyable thanks to this property’s beautifully landscaped grounds—handsome rock walls artfully accent outdoor spaces, highlighting this home’s mature foliage. Take in a view of it all from the deck, and create a patio oasis alongside the lawn. You’ll also find RV parking, extra storage, and tons of additional parking in the driveway so you have room for everyone who comes to visit!
