A lakeside house on shore of Lake Washington surrounded by trees illuminated at dusk with a dock, with hot tub, firepit, outdoor terraces.

Some homes are built. Others are born of intention, elegance, and a life well lived.

“One of the most unique homes I have seen in my 50 years of appraising. It’s function seems to me to be international in scope and execution. This home offers a perfect combination of indoor and outdoor spaces. The close proximity to the lake and the finished spaces that are directly related to the lake are totally private.”

Luxury Residential Appraiser Robert Chamberlin

This rare island estate is nestled against the trees on three sides, offering assured privacy, refined design and sweeping lake views from every room.

The heart of the home blends function with sophistication. With 100 feet of low-bank waterfront and lush gardens surrounding two private docks, this 6-bedroom, 4.5 bath estate includes a boat house and detached studio.

Essence

A kitchen where beauty meets purpose—and every moment feels like a ritual

The kitchen is a place of both elegance and purpose—a space where every detail, from the chef’s tools to the morning coffee, is within effortless reach. It’s designed not just for culinary mastery, but for the quiet luxury of daily rituals. Whether preparing a feast or enjoying a simple meal under open skies, it’s a celebration of living well.

Lush Gardens

Every planting is intentional—chosen for color, for privacy, for the quiet luxury of spaces that invite you to linger. This stretch of the island, once called the Garden of Eden by the Lake, still lives up to its name—lush, timeless, and deeply alive.

Legacy and Nature

Light and nature are woven into every corner of the home. The colors, the textures, the patterns—they speak to the land itself, creating moments of quiet beauty that feel destined, not designed. This is a home that doesn’t sit on the earth, it belongs to it.
