The story

Offered for the very first time, the personal residence of Richard Sundberg, renowned Seattle architect well known for his work on many significant residential and commercial properties throughout the Northwest, the East coast, and Hawaii, among them Seattle's Frye Art Museum and the Wing Luke museum. As with all his projects, Rick's home embodies his celebrated creativity and style. The custom front door fuses an antique Japanese wooden door with metal and glass, creating a modern masterpiece. The entry opens onto a curved limestone stairway leading to the dramatic main living space, featuring cathedral ceilings and a floor-to-ceiling wall of windows. From these you can enjoy the lovely garden space below and peek-a-b00 view of Lake Washington. An open kitchen, with custom wood cabinets, stainless steel appliances & granite countertops, overlooks the main living space & dramatic fireplace alcove. Home office space is conveniently located just off the kitchen. This level also includes multiple decks encased in greenery which offer inviting spots to relax, BBQ, or just enjoy a peaceful, leafy retreat. The first floor of the home, rests amid the lovely, private garden, 3 bedrooms and 2 baths. The primary bedroom area includes two walk-in closets & a bath with custom shower.
