Our featured home today is a four-bedroom, 3.5-bath, country-style two-story with basement. It was built in 2002 and is on a private 5-acre deeded lot on the Tulalip Reservation east of Marysville.
Approach to the house is via a circular driveway with easy access to an attached two-car garage. The main entry is around the corner, at the side of the house.
The back of the home faces views of Marysville, Mount Pilchuck and the Cascade Mountains.
The front door opens to a great-room with maple flooring. To the immediate right is a den or home office with maple flooring and a large bay window overlooking the yard and surrounding native growth forest.
Great-room features include a sitting area with four corner windows, a gas woodburning fireplace with rock hearth and surround, and a French door accessing a wraparound composite deck overlooking the mountain view.
A dining area in the great-room includes three rectangular windows with forest views, and a glass door that opens to the deck.
Steps away is an island-design kitchen with tile flooring, maple cabinets with laminate countertops, a pantry cupboard with bifold doors, a breakfast bar, work station, and two windows above the sink.
A half bathroom and a laundry room complete the entry level.
The bathroom has tile flooring and a high, oversized single vanity made of maple and topped with laminate. All other vanities in the house are similarly constructed.
The laundry room includes a utility sink, tile flooring, and garage access.
A wide switchback staircase in the great-room descends to the finished basement, which includes three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a windowless bonus room with large walk-in closet.
All three bedrooms have light-brown plush carpeting. Two face the view and have double closets with sliding doors; the third faces the road and has its own full bathroom.
Another staircase in the great-room ascends to the upper level, where the master suite is located. Features of the master bedroom include plush carpeting, a French door to a view balcony, a vaulted cathedral ceiling with three skylights, and two double closets.
The master bathroom is highlighted by two separate vanities, a clawfoot tub, shower with fiberglass surround, and a walk-in closet.
