This week’s featured home is an upscale, 3-bedroom, 2-bath rambler with attached 4-car garage. It’s on a quiet, 0.64-acre lot in The Preserve at Lake Cassidy near Lake Stevens.
Close to the Centennial Trail, Lake Cassidy and Lake Stevens, it’s serviced by water, and has high-tech wiring and plumbing for a central vacuum.
Exterior amenities include a massive, wraparound backyard patio plumbed for a barbecue.
Inside, the foyer is decked in cherry hardwood that extends into the kitchen. Crown moulding and millwork extends throughout.
A Great Room concept separated by a wall extending almost to the vaulted ceiling separates the formal living room and family room. Both rooms have vaulted ceilings with dual skylights.
A corner, raised-hearth, gas log-burning fireplace highlights the living room. French doors open from the family room to the patio. An extended, wood-wrapped bay window provides an alcove for the informal nook eating area.
The sprawling kitchen has granite slab countertops, angled breakfast bar, rustic Alder-paneled cabinets, indirect lighting and stainless-steel appliances including a built-in double oven with convection, over-the-range microwave.
The built-in pantry cupboard has pull-outs, appliance caddy and greenhouse plant window.
The 4-car garage is enclosed with two double doors and features a single tandem door that opens to an exposed aggregate parking pad in the rear.
The utility room has built-in overhead cabinets and laundry tub, oak hardwood flooring and a gridded, wood-wrapped window.
A full bath has ceramic tile flooring that includes mosaic inlays.
The single vanity is topped with a granite slab top and augmented by a shower-tub combination with faux white tile fiberglass shell.
The bedroom wing is highlighted by the master suite, which has a nine-foot ceiling with paddle fan light fixtures, French doors that open to the full-length patio and two transom windows that maintain privacy and add natural light. A walk-in wardrobe is completed with multi-tiered, ventilated wire storage shelves.
Bathroom amenities include an L-shaped, granite slab countertop, ceramic tile floor and oversized walk-in shower with intricate tile work including a storage shelf and Rain shower head. The room is completed with a built-in medicine cabinet.
The two remaining bedrooms are both large and include roller-catch double doors enclosing standard closets.
One room has a vaulted ceiling, while both feature overhead light fixtures, phone and cable jacks.
