Seward Park architectural oasis with lake views

Designed as the personal residence of local architects, 5237 S. Juneau St. is a three-bedroom, three-bathroom contemporary home. Located in Seward Park, the 2,540-square-foot house sits at the end of a private, landscaped drive and offers peekaboo views of Lake Washington through the trees.

Built in 2007, a custom steel staircase leads from the oak- and slate-lined entry hall up to a modern home nestled in the treetops. The main living area consists of an open layout living room, dining room and kitchen. Floor to ceiling windows bathe the space in natural light and provide views of the water. A large sliding door opens onto a sizable covered deck with room to entertain. The bright, galley-style kitchen is lined with custom storage and opens onto a side deck with room for a BBQ grill.

The home’s primary bedroom enjoys quiet lake views, too, as well as an office nook and ensuite bathroom. The master bathroom features a steam shower, heated slate flooring and a sizable closet.

Below the main house, a fully appointed ADU could function as a guest suite or income property. This secondary space is private and serene, with a full kitchen, bedroom and its own private deck.
