Overlake

This 1.39-acre legacy property spans two parcels and was built for a large, active family. A main residence and guest house sit within the slope of the land, framed by mature trees. Together with a sports court, pool, and open lawn, the compound blends seamlessly into the landscape. The site drops 50 feet from southwest to northeast, and the design follows that grade in three terraces. At the highest level, the guest house offers two bedrooms, two baths, a great room, and a shaded deck beside the sports court. The middle terrace holds the pool, cabana, and a direct connection to the main house. The main residence opens with gathering spaces, an office, the primary suite, an Au Pair suite, and expansive decks and patios. Its U-shaped form and long rooflines extend toward the mountain views, with Mount Rainier on the horizon. The lowest level tucks around a landscaped courtyard. It holds four en-suite bedrooms, a media room, a wine room, and a semi-detached workout room. From here, the home flows out to the flat lawn. Water features link each terrace, carrying movement and sound throughout the site.
