West Seattle architectural gem overlooking Puget Sound

Designed by Pioneer Square-based, AIA award-winning E. Cobb Architects in 2008, 2117 Bonair Dr. SW was ahead of its time. The three-bedroom, two-and-a-half bath property offers an array of modern design elements, including exposed steel, concrete and glass. From floor-to-ceiling windows and sweeping views to multiple terraces, the home offers an incredible range of amenities.

With 3,030 square feet across two levels, this property was built to maximize access to its incomparable positioning toward the west. Located above Alki Beach, the house offers unobstructed views of the Puget Sound, Bainbridge Island and the Olympic Mountains—from nearly every room. Double-height windows stretch the length of the wall, offering unbeatable panoramas. Watch Washington State Ferries move passengers between neighboring islands and downtown Seattle from the living room or one of two luxe terraces.

The open kitchen, dining and living rooms are framed by steel beams that run along the ceiling. The industrial element extends into other areas of the main floor, including the wall-mounted fireplace and floating stairs. Natural light streams in and bright wood kitchen cabinetry and built-in bookshelves provide balance and warmth to the home’s main floor.

The only upstairs bedroom is the master, complete with a functional, spa-like ensuite and private view-terrace with hot tub. The roomy second-level suite has easy-to-clean concrete flooring and a floor-to-ceiling sliding door onto the deck. The master bathroom, which also provides direct access to the terrace, includes a double-vanity, luxe soaking tub and separate shower with waterfall shower head.
