About this home

This craftsman-inspired coastal retreat offers 100 feet of waterfront and panoramic views of the Puget Sound, East Passage shipping lanes, islands, Olympic Mountains, and vibrant sunsets. Located in secluded Dash Point, the home is designed for comfortable main-level living and to capture the breathtaking view from nearly every room. The natural light-filled great room features 10-foot ceilings, rich wood finishes, refinished hardwood floors, a gas fireplace, and custom built-ins. The view-oriented kitchen is ideal for entertaining, with maple cabinetry, an oversized island, prep sink, wet bar, Sub-Zero refrigerator, and Wolf gas range. The main-level primary suite enjoys stunning water views and includes a gas fireplace, spa-inspired bath, walk-in shower, large walk-in closet, and new carpet. A powder room, laundry room, and attached three-car garage complete the main floor. Upstairs, a loft office provides a quiet retreat with panoramic views. The fully-finished lower level adds flexibility with a second kitchen, laundry area, full bath, two bedrooms, large storage room, and a spacious media room with patio access, separate entry, and additional parking – ideal for guests or multi-generational living. Outdoor spaces include a wraparound deck, covered patio, hot tub area, and level lawn, all positioned to enjoy the water, mountain, and sunset views. Private, peaceful, and conveniently located near everyday amenities, this is Northwest waterfront living at its best.
