Here's a NEW LISTING. This one is in the Mt. Baker neighborhood and is by architect Milton Stricker, here's his original sketch:

and new photos and text below:

The home is located at: 1909 32nd Ave S, Seattle

Directions: take 31st Ave S. go east on Plum Street then north on 32nd to end of dead end, home is the last one on the left, just before the park

Here's the text I helped create with the owners, (the are the original owners, who knew Milton Stricker and designed and built this home in 1990), representing one of the later culminations of the architect's consistent and masterful career: Contact Tom Holst for additional information or for a showing of these or others: cell: 206-841-0003, Tom's email is: moderntom@yahoo.com

"The bold outline and cantilevered decks straight out of the Frank Lloyd Wright school, ala "Falling Water", a classic architect designed modern masterpiece, by former Frank Lloyd Wright apprentice Milton Sticker, a serious devotee of Wright's design philosophy of harmony with nature, go hand in hand with the plant-rich surroundings and landscape design by the also world renown landscape architect Terry Welch.
The walls of glass, Italian master stucco, clear old growth cedar and perfect positioning of all elements play with the sunlight. Indirect electric lighting in each room enhances the uniqueness of each space. The glass walls offer a free flowing relationship of living and garden all day. Morning sunrises and evening sunset backlighting provide unblocked and unstoppable panoramic views from both floors of Lake Washington, Mercer Island, Seward Park, and Mt Rainier. This home is situated near the peak of the Mt Baker ridge on a dead end street, adjacent to quiet, peaceful Colman Park.
The interior done almost entirely in warm mahogany subtle woodwork and valence lighting, open staircase, open plan, walk in closets, and open concept kitchen. The transparent views from each room remind you each day of the joy of living with nature yet this fine example of high end architectural quality and integrity feels like a quiet eagle's perch a million miles away from the city that is actually just a short, hassle-free jaunt away."

Or contact me for additional showings: Size of home: 2,803 square feet, 3BR/ 2.25 bathroom, 2 car garage, beautiful landscaping, the price is $1,200,000.
This is NWMLS listing #277015 Realogics Sotheby's Int'l Rlty.
