There is a particular kind of quiet that only comes with distance from the world, and this Woodinville property has it. Follow the drive back through the trees and the noise of everyday life simply falls away, replaced by birdsong, dappled light through the firs, and the sense that you have found somewhere entirely your own. Inside, the home was built for gathering, whatever that looks like for you. Vaulted ceilings draw the eye up in the great room, while a chef's kitchen with a professional gas range and rich custom cabinetry sets the stage for holiday dinners, Sunday pancakes, or a quiet glass of wine at the end of the day. Hardwood floors carry warmth through the main level, and a built in library wall gives the space a lived in, storied feel. A versatile bonus room above the garage stands ready for a home office or a place to spread out. When it is time to retreat, the primary suite offers its own private deck and a spa like bath finished in natural stone. Outside is where this property truly comes alive. Raised garden beds, a wide lawn for games or simply room to run, and, when the day winds down, a covered patio, fire pit lounge, and hot tub tucked beneath the trees for evenings under the stars. Every corner backs to mature forest, giving the whole property a rare, tucked away feeling. Topped with a brand new roof and just minutes from Woodinville's wine country and top rated Northshore schools, this is a home that feels close to everything, yet entirely its own.
