About this home

Rare opportunity in highly desirable Lake Hills neighborhood. A 2,625 SF mid-century daylight rambler on an 8,762 SF south-facing lot in the heart of top-rated Bellevue School District. Walls of glass flood the 1,572 SF main level with natural light, while a beautifully updated great room kitchen anchors the space with rich maple cabinetry, granite counters, gas cooktop, stainless appliances, and a center island. A dramatic floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace warms the living and dining rooms. The main-level primary suite includes a spacious bedroom, oversized walk-in closet, and private 3/4 ensuite bathroom. A flex/office space, 1/2 bath/powder room, and open great room complete the floor, opening to a nearly 47-foot covered balcony overlooking the private, park-like yard. The 1,053 SF daylight basement expands the possibilities: three (3) additional bedrooms, second large flex/office space, 3/4 bath, and expansive family room with abundant storage. Ideal for multi-generational living, guests, or long-term rental potential. Mature landscaping, oversized private backyard, and detached outbuilding round out the outdoor canvas. Attached garage, forced-air gas heat, public utilities. Steps to Phantom Lake Elementary, Lake Hills Greenbelt, Kelsey Creek Center, and Weowna Park. Minutes to Microsoft, Downtown Bellevue, I-405, and SR-520. First time on market in nearly 30 years. A Lake Hills classic ready for its next chapter. Home pre-inspection and sewer scope available.
