This week’s featured home is a three-bedroom, 2.5-bath two-story located between Everett and Mukilteo. It was built in 1978 and has a sweeping view of Puget Sound, Hat and Whidbey islands, and city lights.
In addition to its 3,086 square feet of living space, the house has 1,179 square-feet of space in an unfinished basement.
The property is at the end of a cul-de-sac, and borders the Narbeck Creek greenbelt.
A small rectangular foyer inside the front entry has oak flooring, a cathedral ceiling and wood railings on both sides.
To the left is a sunken living room with oak flooring, vaulted cathedral ceiling with knotty pine boards and exposed beams, a large bay window facing the view, and a fireplace with brick hearth and surround.
A formal dining area is adjacent to the living room and has pale neutral plush carpeting, knotty pine vaulted cathedral ceiling, picture window with view, and a
French door accessing a wraparound deck.
The kitchen and an informal dining area are at the back of the house. Both have a vaulted cathedral ceiling.
Kitchen highlights include faux tile vinyl flooring, oak cabinets with dark blue ceramic tile countertops, an island with built-in range and oven, two skylights, and a greenhouse window above the sink.
The dining area has a tall greenhouse window and a glass door accessing the deck and back yard. The yard is fenced and includes an in-ground swimming pool.
A hall near the foyer leads to two bedrooms, a bathroom and an owners’ suite.
Both bedrooms have Berber carpeting, a knotty pine vaulted cathedral ceiling, a window facing the back yard, and a double closet with louvered sliding doors.
Features of the bathroom include a deep oval soaker tub encased in tile, a vaulted ceiling with skylight, and a double vanity with cultured marble top.
The suite’s bedroom has Berber carpeting, a built-in wall-length unit with shelves and cabinets, and a sliding glass door that opens to a balcony overlooking the back yard and greenbelt.
Highlights of the suite’s bathroom include a double vanity topped with tile, vaulted ceiling with skylight, and a large shower with tile surround and two shower heads.
A staircase near the foyer descends to the lower level, which includes a large rec room with wet bar, see-through fireplace, and a sliding glass door accessing a huge deck at ground level.
