|
Tucked on a quiet cul-de-sac in the coveted mid-island neighborhood of Island Glen, this updated two-story combines an ideal location with a floor plan made for everyday living. Four bedrooms are upstairs, with an additional main-level bedroom and adjacent bath that's perfect for guests, working from home, or flexible living needs. The formal living room is warm and inviting, with a fireplace and French doors that open to the backyard. In the dining room, a striking tree trunk framed by walls of windows creates a one-of-a-kind focal point that brings the outdoors in. At the heart of the home, a chef's kitchen with a marble island and Viking appliances opens to a bright family room with vaulted ceilings and skylights. A second set of French doors lead to the patio and flat, fenced-in backyard, creating effortless indoor-outdoor flow for entertaining, play, and gatherings. All bathrooms tastefully updated with custom tile, marble, and designer fixtures. A spacious rec room with custom built-ins offers exceptional versatility for media, work, or play, along with abundant storage. Thoughtful updates include central A/C along with new attic and crawlspace insulation and newer windows for enhanced energy efficiency. Ideally located within walking distance to Pioneer Park, Southend shopping, and top-rated Mercer Island schools. Pre-inspected, move-in ready, and now offered at an exceptional new value for this location and level of updates.
