Timeless Elegance Meets Exceptional Craftsmanship In This Home

With an impressive pedigree (architect Jeffrey Taylor, structural design KPFF Consulting Engineers, builder Ben Casady Custom Homes), this singular home is at once private, yet in the heart of the action, timelessly stylish yet built to rigorous structural standards. Why choose form or function when you can have both? The home features steel beam and stunning exposed glue-lam wood beam construction, vaulted ceilings (house and DADU), solid wood posts, authentic river rock fireplaces, wide plank cherry flooring, solid fir ceilings on main, fir window/base trim, professional grade kitchen appliances (including an extra-wide electric Wolf pastry oven, third oven/microwave, and warming drawer in the dining room), extra-large pantry, and loads of storage space. Windows and doors seem to bring the trees and landscaping inside as another room. Stately wrap-around porch connects with multiple outdoor entertaining/living spaces (even a fireplace!). Built-in cherry wood cabinetry, cushioned storage benches, and bookcase are space efficient, purposeful, and beautiful. Four upper floor bedrooms circulate around a spacious bonus area and a south-facing balcony. With a 722SF DADU over the garage and a giant basement awaiting your vision, you have almost 5000SF of space plus a four-car garage; this home is built to grow and adapt as your life changes. The large private lot is surrounded by lush, mature landscaping, yet is in easy walking distance to Lake Washington waterfront and downtown Kirkland.
