Description

One of the original 3-Star Built-Green homes in Seattle, this much-published architectural stunner wowed the community in 2005 as a case study in sustainable building. Two fastidious owners & many thoughtful improvements along the way present a home that is as compelling today as it was 20 years ago. Indeed, better for the time. White quartz & new custom upper cabinets updated the kitchen vibe, with sustainable hardwoods on the main and warm cork in the lower level adding further refinement.

White quartz & new custom upper cabinets updated the kitchen vibe, with sustainable hardwoods on the main and warm cork in the lower level adding further refinement. Raised veggie beds & large patio in the enclosed/sunny backyard, with one-car detached garage off alley. Stunning landscaping front-to-back. In-floor radiant heat on all 3 levels w/recently-added Mini-Splits on main & upper floors delivering A/C.
