About this home

Imagine turning onto one of the finest streets in the coveted Innis Arden community and arriving home through a garden bursting with a kaleidoscope of color and specimen plantings that delight you with texture and interest, season after season. Set on 1.47 acres, this swanky, cool mid-century modern home greets you with sweeping, mesmerizing, westerly views from nearly every room - the mountains, sailboats, ferries, even the occasional orca or humpback passing by. Tastefully reimagined in a joyful and playful palette, the house delivers a rare blend of light, space, and contemporary design with crisp lines, architectural drama, and soaring ceilings. Sweeping walls of glass invite the outdoors in, framing sunsets over the Olympics that bathe the home in a magical show of light and colors. The sumptuous primary suite is a true retreat, with a private view deck for quiet mornings and an extraordinary spa bath. Multiple patios extend the living space to the outdoors year-round, and the garden with greenhouse rewards you with something to pick, right off the vine, in every season. A truly uncommon find: a perfectly located bluff home as artful inside as it is beautiful out.
