They are now in the heart of Discovery Park – Seattle’s 534-acre crown jewel and for the first time offered for private ownership. Vancouver-based, RISE Properties Trust engaged world class consultants to thoughtfully renovate the homes, preserving their character and elegance, including refinished original maple and oak hardwood floors, restored millwork and doors, and refurbished fireplaces and surrounds. Within the timeless architecture, the homes also feature all of the latest modern systems, with enviable kitchens and baths for today’s family living. Step out onto the large, gracious front porch to soak in the western view and sunsets of Puget Sound. Walk down the bluff to the beach and build driftwood forts with the kids. Or just return home from work and feel the unburdening that comes from arriving to a beautiful, natural getaway. “Today’s owners are establishing a legacy for their families. There’s nothing comparable anywhere in Seattle,” says sales director Max Wurzburg. The homes range from 4,000 to more than 6,000 square feet and are priced from $1.8 million USD.
