ABOUT THIS PROPERTY

The smell of the sea and the wetness of fog, the reach of ancient firs and the bark of a seal, the distant rumblings of trains along the shore, and the silent majesty of a coastal promontory rising high above a steep bluff and vibrant wildlife refuge. A place of history, legacy, and surprise. Secluded yet w/in ~30 min drive of downtowns Everett, Bellevue, and Seattle. Greenness is a private 4 lot park ~ 22 miles north of Seattle. Lot 1 is its promontory’s top and most favored western and southern slopes open to unobstructed sunshine and spectacular panoramas of ocean bound shipping and ferry crossings below the Olympic Mountains and peninsula, Bainbridge and Whidbey Islands, and Admiralty Inlet, the Sound’s connection to the Pacific.

Grace was drawn to her time’s International Design Movement from Germany with its more open, functional, flexible, and minimalistic floor plans and expansive view windows interconnecting interior and exterior spaces that became so popular throughout the world. She aligned and recessed her daylit concrete basement into the site’s slopes to maximize her access, view, and sunshine. With its 4’ overhangs, central stair, and custom fireplace, it’s one of the Northwest’s earliest earth sheltered passively solar heated and cooled houses. Since purchasing it 31 years ago, the Lehns have made several updates and have plans for more
