About this home

Another rare Eastside Co. offering! Mt. Washington, mid-century hideout sits on two hillside lots with post and beam bones and a joyfully respectful update by designer/owner. The central living area with southern exposure is flanked on the west by a primary bedroom and guest rooms to the east. Clerestory windows frame the kitchen ceiling and track sunlight through the day. Bespoke artisan millwork to be enjoyed and admired in all rooms. Wide plank European white oak flooring through all rooms. Floor plan with clean, spatial hierarchy - living, dining, and kitchen are lightly tiered yet read as one continuous space sans separating walls. Owners cut no corners and took extreme care in choosing the color and material of each wall, door, doorway, trim, ceiling, hardware and floors. The attention to detail is evident the longer one spends time there. Custom built galley kitchen sits above the dining and living area and has been reworked with open shelving, practical marmolene-like counters with wood & steel faces and hand carved hardware. Both bathrooms delight quality tile work, millwork and natural materials. Extra points for Toto Neorest toilet in the primary. Primary bedroom with tailor made closets opens to deck through generously sized glass doors. Two levels of outdoor living. The deck gets real use here for outdoor dining and gatherings. It faces the canyon and has direct sunset views. Well proportioned with period appropriate railing details. Trees on the lot frame the views of the canyon and offer shade protection. The lower park-like yard area has access to storage under the home. Street to street lot adds to the privacy. A wonderful opportunity for the discerning buyer waiting for that "special home".
