FROM THE LISTING
About this home
Welcome to a rare piece of PNW architectural history. Designed and built by Benjamin McAdoo, the first African American architect licensed in Washington State, this remarkable mid-century home has been lovingly preserved while thoughtfully updated for modern living. Original character shines throughout, from clever secret drawers and built-in vanities to stone fireplaces, walls of glass, soji screens, and distinctive MCM details. Even the exterior color palette was carefully matched to McAdoo’s original specifications. With 4+ bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and a main-level primary suite, the home offers flexibility and function. The kitchen was remodeled in 2020 with modern conveniences while respecting the home’s architectural integrity. Upstairs, two bedrooms and an office accompany an expansive living room framed by floor-to-ceiling windows. Step onto the deck for sweeping views of Puget Sound and Mount Rainier—an extraordinary backdrop from a home designed to embrace its surroundings. The daylight basement adds two additional bedrooms, another living room and a bright bonus room. Outside, a carport and Japanese-inspired garden complement the home’s timeless design and connection to nature.Be sure to take advantage of private access to the beach rights at the Cove. A rare opportunity to own a thoughtfully preserved example of mid-century Northwest architecture—and a meaningful piece of Washington’s architectural legacy.
