This home was built for a couple with grown children on an urban site with a view over the water to the University of Washington. The new home was built over an existing foundation to conserve materials. The layout is organized around the view and the creation of a loft like living space. The second floor has an easy flowing master suite and study oriented toward the view. The main floor is also open and breezy with the same beautiful views. A fireplace within a bookcase set away from the view windows creates a cozy corner for reading and relaxing.

The home is classic and elegant in form and style. It fits well within the mixed neighborhood of apartments and homes. The delightful, open and bright interior is a wonderful place to call home.
