About this home

Mid-Century Soul, Nordic Serenity, Japanese Zen. Located in the walk-to-everything center of the Admiral District yet tucked into a world of its own, this masterpiece offers effortless flow and connection to nature. Cherished by just two owners across its 67 year history. The home greets you with a private, tranquil front patio. A room-sized foyer with slate floors and exposed timber beams sets the stage for a highly desirable Figure-8 layout. Captivating, vaulted wood ceilings throughout. Rare structural & architectural integrity paired seamlessly with warm Scandinavian sensibilities. The updated kitchen is the true heart of the home, boasting a Blue Star range, custom bamboo cabinets, helpful organizational touches, granite countertops, and Marmoleum floors, opening seamlessly to inviting living and dining areas. Living room is anchored by a wood-burning fireplace, tree-canopy views and an enormous nature-view deck. Three bedrooms, 2 baths on main. Primary suite opens to deck. The daylight lower level features sky-high ceilings, a 4th BR, full Bath, wine cellar, spacious gear room, 2nd kitchen space, 2nd living area with a fireplace, and walk-out access to a patio framed by Kubota-designed gardens and rockery. Home and backyard back to a quiet greenbelt-creating a safe, carefree space to play, neighbors to gather, and everyone to relax in nature. Attached 2-car garage + extra off-street parking. This one's so very special! Pre-inspected for your convenience.
