About this property

Panoramic Sound and Olympic Mountain views take center stage at this 3730 sq ft multi-level sanctuary. Set on a generous, private .37-acre lot in Burien's coveted Maplewild neighborhood. Built in 1923 and thoughtfully modernized, this 4 bedroom, 3 bath home pairs charm with contemporary updates. Rich hardwoods, gracious vaulted ceilings with skylights, and light-filled spaces create an effortless flow designed for entertaining and refined daily living. The main level showcases striking views alongside a refreshed kitchen, formal dining room, and an expansive living room with a vintage brick fireplace. A convenient main-floor second primary suite adds valuable flexibility with its own separate access. Upstairs, the primary suite is a quiet retreat with sweeping water views and a spa-inspired bath. Upgraded basement plumbing and HVAC bring peace of mind. An attached garage, carport, and abundant storage meet everyday needs. Step outside to elevated, big-view decks where you can soak in breathtaking sunsets over Puget Sound and the Olympic Mountains. Below, the ample backyard delivers rare privacy this close to the city. Endless room for gatherings around the fire pit. An urban gardener's dream with multiple planter boxes and space for trees and a greenhouse. A secluded natural escape, yet set in the heart of Olde Burien, walking distance to schools, parks, shops, restaurants and the beach, in one of Burien's most sought-after pockets. A true Maplewild coastal haven.
