Remodeled, sophisticated midcentury home in Bryant

Located in northeast Seattle and built in 1950, this sleek single-family home offers four bedrooms and two-and-a-half bathrooms across 2,557 square feet. Remodeled down to the studs in 2016, 6242 40th Ave. NE is bright and airy with an open floorplan and amenity-packed backyard.

Reflecting a crisp, contemporary midcentury modern design, the home’s main floor offers a gourmet kitchen with stainless steel appliances, a corner seating nook and waterfall eat-in island. Just around the corner, the living and dining areas are lined by huge windows and a three-paned slider door that opens onto a large, backyard paver patio. Up the floating staircase, you’ll find three bedrooms—including the master ensuite, as well as a full bath, laundry room and second-floor deck.

The property’s backyard reflects a variety of use-cases. Enjoy a bit of modern art at the standing rock sculpture, entertain around the fire pit or exercise your green thumb at the planter boxes. All of these areas are situated under vibey string lights and connected by stone pathways. Tucked into another corner of the backyard, under the shade of an evergreen tree and alongside a row of bamboo, the property also comes equipped with its own cedar sauna. Relax in the steamy space, then hop out and cool down at the outdoor shower.
