WORDS FROM WENDY Join With Me…Celebrating Waterfront!
From Davy Jones’ locker to the intense beauty of our blue waters, during the month of May our attention is drawn in a salute to Freshwater, Saltwater, Rivers, Ponds. Wade in, jump in, dive in…splash or lounge…the first Saturday of May the parade begins. Homes and vessels with Crow’s Nests. Even Landlubbers at ease with life off-shore. Grasping the language of the sea ~ no kitchens on board (a galley ‘me bucko’ = ‘my friend’). Please take my hand; I’ll walk with you as we tour all types of homes on Lake Washington, Puget Sound and other watercourses. The nature of the communities can be found through Faces and Places. Go direct to www.wendysgonedigital.com or you can find it through www.wendylister.com and hit the link. I’ll be waiting for you. - Wendy

LAKE WASHINGTON 120’ Waterfront
Dominating the shoreland area of nearby fabled Faben Point! Connected to sweeping unobstructed views with Nana doors and windows fusing tremendous vibrant indoor/outdoor portraits. The alfresco living zone spreads its width the span of the sunlit waterside facade in a popular horizontal party-friendly position. The greatroom sports wall is full of flat screens..adjacent to the innovative artisan’s kitchen (born to be a chef?). The stunning surfaces are design inspirations that stimulate the senses of aroma and taste. Even sitting at the breakfast bar is an experience! Formal to casual...exclusive upmarket fashion. Formality in the living room, dinner salon and the luxury master suite. As you take the tour, note the gym, wine center, play rooms and sumptuous baths. And more! Marbles, granites, loggia to the guest wing....specifications that match the intent of the home. Spontaneous action at 120’ of lakefront: Infinitypool drama; superb moorage and dock.

Timeless, enduring, undisturbed. The enchantment and history of architectural inspiration year 1924. An Arthur Loveless blueprint ~ sculpted as his personal residence. 1.659ac gentle street-to-beach full sun site; 100’ level wade-in lakefront. 125’ +/- dock; olde boathouse. Exquisite marvels: his exclusive signature etched on stained glass peep window; leaded panes; coved ceils; niches; ribbon details; rounded arches; grapevine motif woven into dinner room plaster. Remarkable 85 years gardens. The pictures look great. Look out the window to the side yard at the apple tree of more than 125 years old. There is another old apple tree of the same vintage to the right of the patio on the lake side of the house. This home was built on the grounds of an apple orchard. Footnote: “In 1927, Loveless won AIA Honor Awards for the designs of several buildings, including his own residence.” Loveless was elected a Fellow of the AIA in 1941. “The masonry used the Studio Building which is as memorable as any structure in Seattle and beyond. It was tinted to resemble the stone used in the buildings of the Cotswald district of England, structures Loveless greatly admired and from which he often borrowed.”

WORDS FROM A LOCAL AUTHOR: “LAKE WASHINGTON 130 HOMES”- DAVID DYKSTRA
Learn More: www.hundredhomes.net
My wife, Susan, and I live on Lake Washington waterfront on the west side of Mercer Island. We absolutely love our waterfront lifestyle! We enjoy relaxing on our decks and dock and looking at the scenery and activities on the lake. But mostly we enjoy getting out on the lake on our boat, Happy Hours (see photo). We participate in water activities (tubing, water skiing, swimming and the boat’s water slide) with the kids and grandkids. We also have many wine and cheese cruises with the adults while looking at spectacular scenery and beautiful homes. We became so infatuated with the magnificent waterfront mansions, I decided to research the mansions and write my book, Lake Washington 130 Homes, to share my research with other (including “armchair”) boaters.

Seattle’s Water Landmarks The Hiram M. Chittenden Locks are always a great attraction. Late spring/early summer is a great time to enjoy the beautiful Carl S. English, Jr. Botanical Garden.
The gift shop in our visitor center has a wonderful garden pamphlet which will help you find many of the rare and exotic plants waiting to be discovered. Every trip to the Locks should include a walk in the garden, watching the boats, visiting the fish ladder, and exploring the exhibits and gift shop. This is a place “where the activity never stops!”
- 70 -
Operated by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the locks were formally opened on July 4, 1917, although the first ship passed on August 3, 1916. They were named after U.S. Army Major Hiram Martin Chittenden, the Seattle District Engineer for the Corps of Engineers from April 1906 to September 1908. They were added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1978. Info: www.nws.usace.army.mil Images: www.panoramio.com (right) www.myballard.com (left)
Gas Works Park has a play area with a large play barn, and big hill
popular for flying kites. Special park features include a sundial, and a beautiful view of Seattle. Access to Lake Union is restricted at Gas Works Park, as the lake sediment contains hazardous substances. Entering the water or launching boats from the park is prohibited (SMC 18.12.070) There is no swimming, no fishing and no wading in the park. Burke-Gilman Trail runs past Gas Works parking lot and follows the Burlington-Northern Railroad 12.5 miles north to Kirkland Log Boom Park. This 20 acre point on Lake Union was cleared in 1906 to construct a plant to manufacture gas from coal - later converted to crude oil. Import of natural gas in the 1950’s made the plant obsolete. The city acquired the site for a park in 1962. The park was opened to the public in 1975. The boiler house has been converted to a picnic shelter with tables, fire grills and an open area. The former exhauster-compressor building, now a children’s play barn, features a maze of brightly painted machinery. Info: www.seattle.gov Image: www.fogwp.org

Safekeeping Washington’s shores
- 82 -
Washington has about 28,000 miles of shorelines – more than the distance around the Earth. Our shorelines include both quiet breeding areas for blue-ribbon trout and areas where 30-foot waves build and carry away beaches. This wild, dynamic nature of shorelines draws us to the water’s edge. Managing our use and development of shorelines is important. It helps us to preserve what we value and protect life and property. Sharing and caring for shorelines is everyone’s responsibility.
Shoreline Master Programs
Local Shoreline Master Programs apply the Shoreline Management Act at the community level. The Act was adopted by the public in 1972 to help manage shorelines.
Shoreline Management Act Rules www.ecy.wa.gov/biblio/1106005.html
Rule adoption notice for amendments to state’s Shoreline Management Act rules. Amendments address commercial geoduck aquaculture, limited amendments to local shoreline master programs, and housekeeping changes to better align the rule to current state statute. Notice includes adoption, filing and effective dates.

Waterfront properties in the State of Washington have some very unique challenges relative to their boundaries and building setback lines. These include issues like accretion and reliction along riverfront and tidal properties. This is when the boundary lines move with the shoreline as Mother Nature changes the landscape. In addition there are man made changes that effect boundaries like properties along Lake Washington when the lake was lowered for the Ballard Locks. Understanding the rules and laws of Washington State’s riparian boundaries takes years of experience and training. Triad Associates has been analyzing and resolving these boundaries for over 37 years. With a team of Professional Land Surveyors that has been together for decades, they have tackled some of the most complex boundary issues in the state. Their team approach is the cornerstone to coming up with the best boundary solution for the given situation. When asked to resolve a “problem boundary” they use the combined knowledge of hundreds of years of experience to come up with the correct solution. Please contact Greg Juneau, Vice President of Triad Associates for more in depth information on the very complex subject of Riparian Boundaries in the State of Washington.
