Bright, Northwest contemporary home on Mercer Island

This contemporary Mercer Island home offers modern design elements, four bedrooms, three-and-a-half bathrooms and 4,000 square feet of space. Artfully appointed, the property’s focal points include walls of windows, vaulted ceilings and a diverse mix of textures and materials.

Built in 1966, the home’s exterior and outdoor spaces were updated more recently by Mercer Island’s Studio Ectypos. The firm’s architects created a serene, functional outdoor living space that includes a large patio, level lawn and a garden.

Inside, the home’s layout includes two stories and a basement. The downstairs includes formal and informal living and dining rooms, a chef’s kitchen and a bedroom. The living space overlooks evergreen trees and expansive vegetation at the front of the half-acre property. Ideal for home cooks, the kitchen comes complete with a large center island, stainless steel appliances and ample cabinetry storage. 

A floating staircase leads to the home’s second floor, where you’ll find a cozy den lined one one side with built-in bookshelves. The master’s ensuite is upstairs, as are two additional bedrooms. Extra flex and office spaces on the second floor provide plenty of options when it comes to working—or schooling—from home.
