About this home

Introducing one of Edmonds’ last true legacy properties—offered for the first time ever. Set on a sprawling ~1.31-acre parcel, this rare and buildable estate presents a truly unique opportunity in one of the area’s most sought-after locations. Rich in character, the iconic residence captures the spirit of 1960s glamour, where architecture, entertaining, and lifestyle seamlessly came together in a way rarely seen today. Inside, the home offers 5 bedrooms and an array of memorable spaces designed for gathering, including a vintage rec room complete with its original dance floor and bar, along with expansive living areas filled with warmth, charm, and natural light. Large windows frame serene views of the surrounding grounds, creating a connection between indoor and outdoor living. Step outside to your own private retreat, where a heated swimming pool and sun-drenched, level grounds provide the perfect setting for relaxation or entertaining. The usable acreage offers exceptional flexibility—whether restoring the home’s timeless character, expanding the existing footprint, or exploring the potential to build an additional residence (buyer to verify). A truly rare offering that blends history, land, and opportunity—this is Edmonds living at its finest, with endless possibilities to create your vision.
