New Traditional Home in Seattle

Seattle, WA - Modern materials and construction techniques are infused into a traditional style new home located in the Montlake area of Seattle


The owners of this home in the Montlake area of Seattle wanted a new family size, 3500 square foot residence in a traditional style with a gracious front porch and living spaces that spill out onto a back garden.  Being located on a small hillside gives this home the advantage of tucking a two car garage into the basement, but presents the challenge of having a front entry a full story above the street.  A series of landscape walls and stairs were developed to break up the ascent to the homes large front porch. A large open family room and kitchen are located at the back of the house, level with the back garden.  Large doors open to a covered patio that helps extend outdoor living into three seasons.
Inside, detailing reminiscent of traditional architecture is reinterpreted for today’s living with an airy floor plan with tall ceilings and rich architectural detailing.
