Description:
This award winning lakeside home was designed in 1982 by the renowned Seattle architectural firm, Miller/Hull. It remains as fresh, exciting and intimate today as it was when it was first created. Built partially into the earth to be energy efficient, the home's trapezoidal shape was dictated by the property's tall Fir and Cedar trees. The forested site inspired the abundant use of wood both inside and out. From the driveway, the house almost disappears into the sloping hill. Inside, a south-facing window follows the slope of the land letting in light and keeping the forest floor at eye level. This house in the woods is both elegant and rugged with laminated-fir posts supporting the massive beams and roof structure. These posts and beams are exposed throughout, creating a lodge feel to this incredible home. Dramatic window walls bathe the home in light. A spectacular view of Lake Marcel, just feet away, can be enjoyed from the living room, dining room, all 3 bedrooms, eating area and kitchen. One can't help but recognize that this home is truly a design marvel that is equaled by the quality with which it was crafted. The exquisite maple and tile kitchen overlooks the open living room and solarium dining room. Custom maple cabinets abound in the kitchen and office area. Skylights provide additional light and a birds-eye view into the treetops. Vast amounts of storage, built-in desk, a laundry room with state-of-the-art appliances, and more await you inside. Outside, enjoy a barbeque on the patio or take a hot tub with a view of the Lake! Follow the enchanting walkway to your private dock where you can enjoy the sun, swimming, or fish for trout and bass. There's an insulated 2-car detached garage with attic and great storage, a carport, separate workshop and circular driveway. This Sunset Magazine Award Winner and magnificent example of Pacific Northwest Architecture can now be yours. With paradise this close to Seattle (just 30 miles away), you may find it hard to resist making this wonderful property your home.
