Elegance You Can Feel. Comfort You Can Live In.

Just a five-minute walk to Laurelhurst Beach Club, the "Villa on the Hilla” evokes the romance of a European Lifestyle with its charm and excellent craftsmanship.

Built in 1936 by renowned Seattle Designer/Builder Gardner J. Gwinn, this home encapsulates his theory that livability and beauty are equally as important as quality materials and sturdy construction. Thick hand-laid stone walls, red tile roof, arched openings, Juliet Balcony, and floor to ceiling windows stand proudly on a quiet corner lot surrounded by beautiful gardens and a breathtaking view of Mt. Rainier.

Inside you are transported by the sun filled rooms, the high beamed ceilings, stunning inlaid hardwood flooring, and rapturous window views. A wrought iron railing leads gracefully to the upper floor. The circular floor plan lends itself to great entertaining with a chef’s utilitarian kitchen, a dining room, a powder room along with a coveted main floor sunny bedroom.

Quiet luncheons or dinners on the Southwest facing outdoor deck, surround a seating area for conversations around the gas fired fireplace and glittering view of Lk. Washington.

Experience the updated classicism of this truly beautiful home.
