The story
An immaculate John Buchan house privately positioned on a quiet cul-de-sac in Sammamish’s sought-after Uplands, this 3,510 square-foot, 4-bedroom, 3.25-bath residence pairs timeless craftsmanship with panoramic views of Cougar Mountain and the surrounding ridgelines. Soaring ceilings, newly finished hardwood floors, extensive millwork, abundant natural light establish a sense of quality from the start. The formal living and dining rooms set the stage for entertaining, while the serene main-floor den captures the view and provides a beautiful space for work or retreat. At the heart of the home, the updated kitchen features quartz counters, stainless appliances, a wet bar, and an inviting nook that opens to the fully fenced, park-like backyard. The adjoining family room centers around a striking brick fireplace, creating a natural gathering place. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite offers sweeping views and a luxurious 5-piece bath with a walk-in closet, joined by three additional bedrooms and a versatile bonus room/fifth bedroom with its own bath. Recent improvements include interior painting in 2026, exterior painting in 2022, an upgraded roof in 2013, windows, and a 2019 furnace and A/C. A 3-car garage with an EV charger adds everyday convenience. Backed by acclaimed Issaquah schools and minutes from I-90, this is more than a beautifully maintained home. It is the rare combination of privacy, craftsmanship, views, and location that makes life on the Plateau exceptional.
