The front door opens to reveal a traditional split level entry, and just up the stairs you’ll find the kitchen, spacious dining area, and living room. In the kitchen, discover style straight from the glossy pages of a home design magazine—this pristine space shines with perfection! Details like the large island with bar-style seating, abundant storage in crisp cabinetry, generous counters, and a motion sensor faucet are all in the dynamic mix. Host with ease and comfortable elegance, whether you’re gathered at the island enjoying refreshments with friends or serving a sit-down meal in the dining area. Plus, direct deck access makes for seamless indoor-outdoor living! 

The living room is anchored by a wood fireplace that adds instant coziness to any get-together. A huge picture window lets in natural light, and the warm, neutral color palette makes it easy to start arranging furniture and decorating as soon as this home is yours. Another living area is on the lower level, and this haven is perfect for movie nights. A wet bar adds ease to hosting, too—keep snacks and beverages handy on your next game day get-together or anytime you’re hanging with guests! 

Even more versatility can be enjoyed with this home’s 4 bedrooms and 2.25 baths. 3 bedrooms are on the upper level, and 1 bedroom is on the lower level. Each bedroom offers something a bit different—built-in desks and tons of closet space await. Plus, don’t miss this home’s beautifully curated baths! 

A serene sanctuary of Pacific Northwest beauty awaits in the backyard, and this idyllic getaway is truly something special. A huge deck overlooks the gorgeous scene, while a lower covered patio lets you enjoy fresh air whether rain or shine. Mature plants and trees offer a sense of seclusion and a view, and you get to benefit from past decades of cultivation!
