About this home

Perched atop Puget Ridge and backing onto green space, this 1962 mid-century daylight rambler was taken down to the studs in a fully permitted remodel. The 4-bedroom, 3-bath layout flexes for multi-generational living, guests, or rental income, now and into the future. Original hardwoods and natural light from eastern and western exposures greet you in the open main level. Relax by the fire in the living room or gather in the chef's kitchen, with quartz counters, stainless appliances, a pot filler, and abundant cabinets. Then, take in the tree-framed territorial views across the valley from the dining area and covered deck. Three bedrooms, a full bath, and laundry complete the main floor. Downstairs, the primary suite is a private retreat with a full bath, a dressing room, and its own laundry. Beyond it, a fully equipped guest suite has a private entrance, a kitchenette, a full bath, and laundry, plus a storage room and a covered patio. Behind the walls: all-new plumbing, 400-amp electrical service ready for EV charging, Cat6 wiring throughout, a high-efficiency heat pump for central heating and air conditioning, new insulation and windows, and a seismic retrofit for peace of mind. A 2-car garage, an oversized driveway, and a 7,200 sq ft lot on a quiet street round it out.
