North Sound Property News

I am starting a new feature here on the blog to showcase the best examples on the MLS of my favorite architectural styles, Mid-Century Modern and Northwest Contemporary.   For those unfamiliar with those styles, I refer you to my previous article here.

Here are my my picks for the week:

1928 10th Avenue E
Capitol Hill
$1,199,000
MLS#  28024730

Perhaps more modern than mid-century, I love the use of glass and exotic materials.  The exterior is mahogany, steel & concrete with a secluded stone terrace and low-maint gardens. Indoors you’ll find a great room concept w/Brazilian cherry floors, concrete fireplace w/hearth-seating, Viking, Sub-Zero, limestone & maple finishes.  And you can’t beat the fabulous, close-in location.  http://www.windermere.com/28024730

2432 127th Ave SE
Bellevue/Woodridge
$559,950
MLS# 28042856

This great mid-century modern home in the Woodridge area of south Bellevue sits on an incredible 16,000 square foot street-to-street lot. This home has so many great midcentury features such as exposed wood framing, low-pitch roof, huge windows to bring the light indoors.  Best of all, it is priced to exemplify the modern aesthetic of putting great design within reach. Great neighborhood with community pool and park. http://www.windermere.com/28042856

4875 Alpine Drive
Everett/Forest Park
$399,000 
MLS# 28023533

This enormous 3,000 asf home has been recently remodeled/updated but still retains many of its best mid-century features, including the enormous windows, exposed wood beams, a flowing and open floor plan.  http://www.windermere.com/28023533

These homes represent a fraction of the great mid-century homes on the market right now.  Contact me if you would like to see these or any of the other great midcentury homes currently available.
