Welcome to the historic, coastal Seahurst community where residents enjoy treating the 178-acre beach park like it's their own backyard! Just up the hill from the park sits this one-of-a-kind, custom-designed NW Contemporary — cherished by only two owners since 1975. Wrapped in big leaf maples and stately evergreens, the home is tucked away from the daily hustle – but never feels too far from it, especially now that the roadway has been updated and power lines moved underground for an even more polished approach. Step inside to find fresh paint throughout and generously sized rooms, many crowned with vaulted ceilings that make every space feel larger than life. Expansive picture windows on the main floor blur the line between forest and home, while the updated kitchen, open floor plan, and private deck provide room for everything from intimate dinners to full-blown gatherings. The primary suite is also located upstairs, leaving the lower level free for work, play, or multigenerational configurations. And for all the garage people: don't miss this 4-car tandem garage with room for your toys or a dedicated shop! You deserve a sanctuary of your own!
