A sprawling multi-level custom contemporary with four bedrooms and five bathrooms is our featured resale home this week. It was built in 1994 on a 1.5-acre lot on a bluff overlooking Puget Sound, with unobstructed water, island, city and mountain views.

The property has 125 feet of waterfront on the Sound, and includes a separate lot with Tulalip Bay frontage.

The home’s glass double front door opens to a foyer with marble tile flooring. Directly ahead are formal living and dining rooms in an open floor plan.

Highlights of the room include pale neutral plush carpeting, soaring cathedral ceilings, nine view windows, wainscoting, shadowboxing, architectural columns, and a gas fireplace with marble hearth and surround.

A hall to the left of the foyer leads to a three-quarter continental bathroom and a bedroom or home office. The bathroom, which has access from the hall and the bedroom, is finished with tile flooring and a shower with tile surround.

Features of the bedroom include a double-door entry and a sliding glass door that opens to a covered ground-level deck facing the view.

The kitchen, an informal dining area and a family room are positioned off the living room area. The island-design kitchen has hardwood flooring, European style cabinets, granite slab countertops, a pantry, and a view window above the sink. One side of the island has backlit glass block.

The informal dining area is a nook with three picture windows overlooking the view, and a sliding glass door accessing another deck and the back yard, which has beach access and a party-sized hot tub.

Features of the family room include Berber carpeting, view window with window seat, an elevated gas fireplace with slate tile hearth and surround, television alcove, and built-in shelves and drawers.

A half bathroom and a laundry room complete the entry level.

A wide curved staircase in the foyer ascends to the upper level, which can also be reached from a second staircase near the kitchen and living room.

The second level consists of a mother-in-law unit with full-sized kitchen, a bedroom suite with full bathroom, a walk-in closet, living room, dining area and separate view deck.

Nine steps up from the unit is a spacious bedroom suite with see-through gas fireplace, walk-in glass block shower with view window, and a view balcony.

A media room and rec room with wet bar are on the lower level. The home has surround sound, security and central vacuum.
