From the Agent: "This custom architectural home, built in 2022, is the epitome of Scandinavian minimalism. Nestled in a tranquil location with few neighbors, it is a perfect retreat for both architecture fans and nature lovers. Clever use of open slatting in the design of the main floor creates an uninterrupted front elevation, and provides a sense of seclusion. Inside, heated concrete floors, Carrera marble, and Brazilian soapstone complement the Douglas fir Fenstür windows. Hike up to the top of the property and you’ll be in for a special surprise—a distant view of the coastal islands and Salish Sea."
Nestled just a stone’s throw from the water, the home has been thoughtfully built into its tree-filled lot. Underneath the home, a large carport includes a Tesla charger.
