This $12.5 Million Craftsman-Style Home Is Perched Over Lake Washington
Vibrant hues of orange, pink, and yellow often illustrate the morning skies above Lake Washington. And now, a craftsman-style residence overlooking its calm waters is now up for grabs, affording you unobstructed views of its natural beauty as well as the city skyline.
The gated estate at 9310 SE 5th Street was built in 1968 as a single-family residence in Bellevue, Wash. Its seller bought it in 1986 and completed a major renovation of the home in 1992, which tacked on a swimming pool and removed walls to give it an indoor-outdoor feel. By 2002, it underwent a second renovation, this time for its interiors. Seattle-based architect Patrick Brennan was tapped to work on the two-story home, alongside names like Doug Rasar and David Pfeiffer, who updated the interiors with a pyramid skylight and landscaping, respectively. It most recently came to market in November 2024 at the current asking of $12.5 million. Terry Allen and Patricia Wallace of Coldwell Banker Realty hold the 2.69-acre listing in the Evergreen State.
