Windermere Contemporary

Matt plucked this contemporary home out of the new listings this week and if you are looking to live near Magnuson Park and blocks from the Burke Gilman then this is worth a look. A vaulted ceiling lets in lots of light but what really catches my eye is the finished wood fireplace (never seen that before) and how they went gangbusters in the kitchen (red cabinetry is not for the wimpy). The master bath has some serious style too — and includes a skylight.

Located at 5850 57th Ave NE, this contemporary home is asking $689K for its 3-bedrooms, 1.75 baths, 1,860 square feet and a surprising amount of outdoor space.
