Description

Experience the inviting warmth of an East Coast aesthetic paired with the flair of Northwest Contemporary in this enchanting Mercer Island home.

Three sets of doors lead to a level play area and spacious deck, perfect for entertaining. The chef’s kitchen and flexible floor plan accommodate remote workstations, a grand piano, arts-and-crafts areas, and cozy nooks for quiet retreats. Upstairs, discover two bedrooms plus a primary suite with a remodeled bath—all just minutes from both the north and south ends of the Island. Tons of storage!
