Today our featured home is a six-bedroom, 3.5-bath contemporary daylight-basement rambler in Marysville. It was built in 1998 and is on a .23-acre corner lot at the intersection of a residential street and cul-de-sac.
The back and side of the house face views of Puget Sound, downtown Marysville, Mission Beach and Whidbey Island.
Inside a low picket fence at the front of the house are a water feature and small pond.
The front door opens to a foyer hall with oak flooring. To the immediate right are a formal living room and formal dining room in an open floorplan. Features include off-white plush carpeting, wainscoting, shadowboxing, coffered ceilings, rounded corners, large view windows, and a gas fireplace with granite tile hearth and surround.
To the left of the entry is a den, home office or bedroom with paned French door, off-white plush carpet, wainscoting, shadowboxing, a window overlooking the cul-de-sac, and a double closet with sliding doors.
A second hall intersecting the first leads to a half bathroom, one bedroom, a continental full bathroom, and the owners’ suite.
Features of the half bathroom include oak flooring and a pedestal sink. The continental bathroom, with access from the hall and bedroom, has tile flooring, an oversized single vanity topped with tile, and a shower-tub combination with fiberglass shell. The bedroom faces the street and has a double closet with mirrored sliding doors.
Highlights of the suite are a double-door entry, French door accessing a view deck, and a five-piece bathroom with jetted tub, double-sized shower, walk-in closet, tile flooring, and an elongated double vanity topped with tile. The shower is tiled and has a clear enclosure; the tub is encased in tile.
A kitchen, informal dining area and family room form a great-room at the back of the house. Features of the island-design kitchen include oak flooring, oak cabinets with tile countertops, white-on-white appliances, and a walk-in pantry. The island has a smooth cooktop and a breakfast bar.
The family room is highlighted by Berber carpeting, a French door to the deck, a large view window, and a fireplace with tile hearth and surround.
A staircase in the great-room descends to the daylight basement, which includes three more bedrooms, a rec room, laundry room, full bathroom, work room, and access to an attached three-car garage.
The home has gas forced-air heat, and security, surround sound and central vacuum systems.
