THE RESIDENCE
Welcome to Luxurious Island Living. This gorgeous home is nestled on one of the most sought-after streets on the island, offering breathtaking views of Puget Sound, the Cascade Mountains, and the Seattle city skyline. With nearly 100 feet of low bank beachfront and easy staircase access, this property is perfect for launching a kayak or paddleboard and exploring the beauty of the island.
As you enter the streetside of the property, a long drive enveloped in greenery provides a sense of privacy and tranquility. The grand entryway with an English streetlight hanging above, complete with stained glass, sets the tone for the elegance and sophistication that awaits you inside.
Upon entering the home, you'll immediately notice the warm wood tones and custom materials used throughout, creating a study in textures. The main level features Brazilian slate heated floors, and the great room boasts a formal area with a fireplace, built-in bench seating for spending an afternoon curled up with a book, and doors to the patio. The expansive patio stretches the full length of the home on the backside, providing the perfect location for summer parties and outdoor gatherings.
In the center, a formal dining area with a stylish light fixture and another set of doors to the outside is an ideal setting for grand celebrations and holidays. Adjacent to the dining area is the kitchen and family room area, which was completely redone as part of a complete renovation of the home in 2018. Granite counters complement custom cabinetry with every appointment one needs for formal preparations or casual weeknight dinners: two sinks, an island, Wolf range and stainless appliances, and a built-in desk area. An informal sitting area with fireplace and eat-in area is ideal for your day-to-day, starting with your morning cup of coffee. Adjoining the kitchen, you'll find the spacious butler's pantry, with sink, and a temperature-controlled wine room with a 600-bottle capacity. The main level also features a bedroom with an ensuite bathroom, perfect for guests or a live-in nanny.
A staircase with a landing leads you to the upper level, where you'll find a sumptuous primary suite with water views and a fireplace. Your daily routine is a breeze with two walk-in closets and vanity area, and the ensuite bathroom has a luxurious touch, with heated Brazilian slate floors, granite counters, a soaking tub with bubble jets and chroma color-changing lights, dual sinks, and rain shower. From the bathroom, a door leads to a covered deck for year-round enjoyment of water views.
The upper level also includes an office with built-ins that shares access to the waterside covered deck, another bedroom with a five-piece ensuite bathroom, and fitness room with its own private covered deck on the streetside and an ensuite bath with a walk-in steam shower to unwind after a workout. The laundry room with a sink and ample storage is conveniently located on this level as well.
An attached two-car garage provides ample space for vehicles and storage, while the additional enclosed workspace is perfect for the hobbyist or DIY enthusiast. It is alarmed, has its own garage door, is heated and cooled, and has a foot pedal sink and gas line to the space. The garage is connected to the informal, day to day, entry to the house via a covered breezeway with a full glass greenhouse-style ceiling with two exterior access doors on either side.
The property is also equipped with a full-house backup generator and state-of-the-art Control4 Home Automation, providing a seamless and convenient way to manage all your home’s systems via your phone or tablet.

The property comes fully furnished with custom-designed furnishings for each space, providing a turn-key and ready-to-live-in experience. With its private and quiet setting, spectacular views, and luxurious amenities, Luxurious Island Living is a true one-of-a-kind offering and one of the finest homes to ever come available for sale on Bainbridge Island!
