Cool, clean, & sophisticated mid-century modern architectural masterpiece—Prime location, ultimate privacy - This architectural masterpiece is an entertainer's dream with a wide open floor plan and expansive walls of glass, set off the street for maximum privacy. The home is uncluttered and sleek, with cork floors and clear grain fir cabinetry—quality materials throughout.
Form follows function throughout this beautiful home, which was lovingly designed and maintained by architect and former owner Lloyd Gilham. Natural outdoor elements are incorporated throughout the home, truly a pleasure to view.
Step inside through the welcoming and spacious entry to the light and bright, yet warm and inviting living/dining/kitchen area with a mood-setting fireplace. Beautiful wood abounds, a reflection of the natural world just outside, not to mention the light that filters in through plentiful windows and skylights.
In the kitchen, you'll find granite counters, stainless steel appliances, a built-in wine rack, and a cooking island designed to also serve as a sit-down eating bar. A long expanse of windows runs along the wall above the wood backsplash, so you can revel in the serenity of the gorgeous front yard while you do dishes.
A screened-in sitting area surrounded by floor-to-ceiling windows has another small fireplace and provides a lovely view of the spacious backyard, with partial landscaping and partial old-growth trees, surrounding a good-sized patio area—the perfect setting for sublime Pacific Northwest living.
The fourth bedroom and second bath are off the spacious family room that boasts a wall of built-in shelving, a built-in seating area, and a beamed ceiling.
Mini splits provide efficient and effective heating and cooling throughout.
There's even a private walking path right in your own yard and a horseshoe pit, ideal for relaxing and fun with family and friends.
Outside, you'll also find a wood shed/storage shed and a fire pit on the property to enjoy warm summer and crisp early autumn nights.
The oversized two-car garage and carport provide plenty of space for parking.
The home's location is desirable, near Bethany Village, which is walkable via the sidewalk on the main road or via nearby trails. Nike and Intel are a short drive away.
Please note: A shoes-off household is preferred.
