Modern Leschi Living
Positioned along a peaceful street lined with residences reflecting an eclectic collection of distinctive architectural styles, this beautifully renovated Leschi residence offers a rare balance of modern comfort, thoughtful design, and exceptional everyday livability. Set back from the street for an added sense of privacy, the home enjoys a tranquil setting while remaining just moments from Lake Washington, the restaurants and cafés of nearby Madrona, and neighborhood favorites including Peppi's Playground and Leschi Elementary play area. New exterior siding, extensive interior updates, and carefully selected finishes create a home that feels fresh, sophisticated, and move-in ready, while its welcoming presence blends naturally into one of Seattle's most treasured neighborhoods.
An expansive front deck provides an inviting introduction, offering a wonderful place to enjoy morning coffee, visit with friends and neighbors or unwind beneath the evening sky. Inside, a spacious foyer creates a gracious first impression, complete with custom built-in shelving that keeps daily essentials organized while setting the tone for the home's clean, modern aesthetic.
Open Gathering Spaces
Engineered hardwood flooring flows throughout the main living areas, unifying an open-concept floor plan designed for both entertaining and everyday life. Abundant windows fill the generous living spaces with natural light, while the dedicated dining area features sliders leading to the backyard, making indoor-outdoor gatherings feel seamless whether hosting friends for dinner or enjoying relaxed summer evenings at home.
At the heart of the home, the beautifully remodeled kitchen brings together style and functionality. An oversized island naturally becomes the gathering place for casual meals, conversation, and meal preparation, complemented by crisp white shaker cabinetry, classic subway tile, quartz countertops, and premium Bosch appliances alongside a Whirlpool refrigerator. Every element has been selected to create a space that is equally suited to busy weekday routines and cooking favorites.
The main level offers a comfortable guest bedroom along with a versatile additional room that easily adapts to changing needs as a home office, study, or potential fifth bedroom. Thoughtfully positioned apart from the upper-level primary suite, these spaces provide flexibility while maintaining privacy for both everyday living and overnight guests. The beautifully updated full bath features quartz countertops, quality cabinetry, and timeless tilework, creating a cohesive design that feels elevated without sacrificing practicality.
Private Retreats
Ascending the staircase reveals an additional living area that offers exceptional flexibility as a media room, home office, playroom, fitness area, or creative studio. Nearby, a bright upstairs laundry room with utility sink simplifies daily routines, while Mitsubishi mini-split heating and air conditioning provide highly efficient, individually controlled year-round comfort while helping reduce energy consumption. Two additional bedrooms and another beautifully renovated full bath are also found on this level, creating a layout that offers comfortable separation for both everyday living and overnight guests.
The primary suite serves as a peaceful retreat, where generous proportions, a fireplace, and a private sitting area create an atmosphere more reminiscent of a boutique hotel than a traditional bedroom. Skylights bathe both the bedroom and the spa-inspired ensuite in natural light, while doors open to a secluded balcony, offering a quiet escape at the beginning or end of each day. The ensuite continues the sense of luxury with a dual-sink vanity, soaking tub, separate walk-in shower, and an expansive walk-in closet complete with custom built-in organization.
Outdoor Serenity
Outdoor living continues in the private, fully enclosed backyard, where extensive stonework, a new retaining wall, and a spacious entertaining deck create a tranquil setting for everything from weekend barbecues to quiet afternoons surrounded by well-maintained landscaping. The spacious attached two-car garage with EV charger offers the convenience of direct interior access, an especially welcome feature during Seattle's rainy weather. Combined with abundant outdoor gathering areas and thoughtful improvements throughout, the home delivers the comfort and convenience that make daily living feel remarkably effortless.
Beyond the property itself, Leschi offers one of Seattle's most sought-after lifestyles. Residents enjoy easy access to the shores of Lake Washington, Leschi Marina, waterfront parks, scenic walking and cycling routes, neighborhood cafés, acclaimed restaurants, and nearby shopping in Madrona, Capitol Hill, and downtown Seattle. The ability to stroll to the lake or enjoy dinner in Madrona further enhances everyday life. The neighborhood's combination of quiet residential character, outstanding recreation, and exceptional connectivity allows homeowners to enjoy a tranquil retreat without sacrificing the convenience and energy of city living.
Leschi: A Coveted Waterfront Neighborhood with Exceptional Urban Access
Leschi offers an appealing combination of natural beauty, timeless character, and urban convenience. Set along the western shore of Lake Washington, the neighborhood is known for its tree-lined streets, architecturally distinctive homes, and a breathtaking waterfront setting. Residents enjoy easy access to Lake Washington Boulevard, Leschi Park, swimming beaches, boat launches, and miles of scenic walking and cycling paths. The neighborhood's intimate commercial district features local favorites including Leschi Market, waterfront dining, and neighborhood cafés, creating a welcoming community atmosphere.
Beyond its own amenities, Leschi enjoys an exceptional location just minutes from downtown Seattle, First Hill, the International District, and the stadiums, with convenient access to I-90 for commuting to Bellevue and the Eastside.
Nearby Madrona, Mount Baker, and Columbia City further expand the urban lifestyle with boutique shopping, acclaimed restaurants, coffee shops, wine bars, and one of Seattle's most popular year-round farmers markets. Few neighborhoods combine lakeside tranquility with such effortless access to the very best of the city.

“This is the latest best kept secret in Seattle; the pastries are so elevated.. The style of pastry is more what I would call "European", less sugar and much more varied in texture and subtle flavor such as pistachio, almond, blood, orange, or even black currant.”
