Some homes are simply places to live & then there are those shaped by the beauty of their surroundings. Welcome to this 1 owner, custom-built waterfront residence set on the Puget Sound. Nearly 2 acres alongside 119+/- ft of no-bank beach, this property was thoughtfully created to embrace the natural landscape. From the water’s edge, views stretch across Totten Inlet & the Olympic Mountains, creating a magical backdrop that changes w/the tides, weather & seasons. The entertaining residence offers 4 beds (3-bed septic) & an upstairs media/exercise room. Main level centers around a great room where a wall of windows opens to a covered deck. Main floor primary offers 2 closets & a hotel-inspired bath + extra bedroom with ¾ bath. Lower level w/2 more beds & baths. Best of all, discover the unexpected, a hidden speakeasy tucked behind a bookshelf. Exposed beams, octagonal spaces & grand north-facing windows add character while bringing the ever-changing waterfront indoors. Outside is where this property comes even more alive. Expansive patio, hot tub & water feature lead to your private beach, custom treehouse & waterfront fire pit. A designated moorage buoy w/immediate deep-water access invites boating, fishing & exploring wildlife & the waterways of the Sound.
