The story
EPLE | A RARE NEW OFFERING IN NORMANDY PARK. New construction of this caliber, paired with a six-figure landscape installation, is seldom available in this waterfront community. Move-in ready, the 3,001-square-foot Scandinavian residence offers four bedrooms and 3.5 baths, including a main-level guest suite and provision for a future elevator. Vaulted ceilings, natural materials, and custom cabinetry shape an open main level designed for gathering, flowing to the outdoor kitchen and terraces. Upstairs, the primary suite spans the home's western edge with vaulted ceilings, a walk-in closet, balcony, and spa bath with heated floors. The wellness studio serves as an office, playroom, or retreat, with views toward Vashon Island and the Olympic Mountains. Outside, the fully fenced backyard and newly planted gardens make room for play, shared meals, and evenings together. A cedar pergola planted with Ruby Seedless grape marks the entry, while stone steps rise through the side yard to a secluded terrace centered on a gas-ignited wood-burning fire pit overlooking Puget Sound. Eple, Norwegian for apple, carries the orchard story forward through a landscape shaped by stewardship, abundance, and the belief that what is grown is meant to be shared. Built by Terrain Signature Properties as the founding residence of HJEMSTED, Eple offers enduring craftsmanship and a genuine sense of home, just 20 minutes from downtown Seattle amid Normandy Park's forested streets and private beaches.
