A World Unto Itself...

Located in the Needle Creek neighborhood—one of the most desirable areas on Vashon Island—the buildings and grounds of this unique 12.5-acre estate meld northwest contemporary styling with classic Asian design on a site that has wide views, copious sunlight, and stunning gardens. There are several granite paths traversing the property, which connect three substantial buildings; the main entry to the residence, is across two 20-foot long slabs of antique Chinese granite, bridging the water feature and pond.

The approach to the front door winds through a canopy of Northwest old-growth evergreens, ferns and other native plants, as well as Asian artifacts, creating a contemplative and other worldly ambience. The primary house, designed by notable Seattle architect, Patrick Gordon, features redwood siding, reclaimed CVG fir posts/beams/floors/ceilings/ windows and doors, in an open floor plan. Adjacent to the main residence is a 200-yearold Chinese merchant’s “rummah/gudang” house with guest quarters and a lovely great room for use as a studio or group space.

Slightly further from the house is the grander scale, 100-year-old, plein-air, teak house from the Javanese region of Kudus, famous for its mystical architecture. The house, resplendent with carving developed by centuries of Arab and Chinese cultural influence, is surrounded by gardens and water features, both designed by renowned Northwest landscape architect, David Pfeiffer.

This is a singular estate, poised on the leading edge of the Pacific Rim, reflecting its legacy through timeless materials and a perfect blending of many great cultures, melded into a place of spectacular expectation! Offered at $2,995,000. For a complete Photo Gallery and additional information, please visit pusakavashon.com

Gold Beach—View VASHON ISLAND IS A RURAL PARADISE

nestled in the waters of Puget Sound between Seattle and Tacoma. Accessible only by ferry, the island lifestyle is slower paced, friendly and diverse, a veritable haven for those looking to get away from hectic city life.

The island is 48 square miles, stretching 12 miles north to south. Country roads wind through thick forests and pastoral settings with glorious vistas of the Sound and surrounding mountains. Outdoor enthusiasts are drawn to the island to enjoy the beautiful scenery for bicycling, kayaking, hiking and beachcombing.

Vashon is a small, tight knit community of approximately 11,000 people that call the island home. There are many painters, potters, jewelers, musicians and writers, as well as Washington’s oldest community arts center, the Blue Heron.

Windermere’s Vashon Island office has 12 full-time sales associates and is an office that has been part of the community since 1948. Enjoy your day, week or lifetime on beautiful Vashon Island! WRE/Vashon-Maury Island, LLC. windermerevashon.com

Rockaway Bluff BAINBRIDGE ISLAND IS A RELAXING FERRY

ride across Puget Sound from Seattle’s downtown business and financial center.

Winslow is the island’s commercial center, offering a small town atmosphere and a full complement of retail and business establishments to service island residents.

Bainbridge Island has evolved from a community with booming shipbuilding, timber and international shipping industries, waterfront summer cottages and berry farms to a rural community of year-round residents who treasure the beauty of Bainbridge Island.

Most working Islanders commute by ferry to Seattle. Bicyclists and joggers love the island’s quiet, delightful picnic areas.

And the schools are among the best in the state!

Windermere’s Bainbridge Island office was established in 1978. Our associates have years of experience in handling residential real estate negotiations.

They’re committed to making lasting contributions to the community by being involved in a wide range of service activities. WRE/Bainbridge Island.

WHIDBEY ISLAND HAS BECOME A POPULAR

destination for people looking for a summer retreat, those planning retirement or anyone who wants to escape the fast pace of the cities. Surrounded by Puget Sound waters and the dramatic views of both the Cascades and the Olympics, it is the longest island in the contiguous U.S. From spectacular Deception Pass and the Naval Air Station on the north through rolling farms, tall forests and charming vistas to the convenience of commuting to Everett and Seattle, the varied cultures and terrain make this area most appealing.

Miles of beaches, marinas, golf courses, equestrian opportunities and an active cultural community offer the widest scope of activities and interests. Couple this with the low rainfall of the “Puget Sound Banana Belt” and you have one of the best lifestyles in the Pacific Northwest.

Office locations spanning the entire island give us expansive market knowledge.

If you’re looking for your dream home, investment or rental property, we’ll provide top quality, professional attention. WRE/ South Whidbey. WRE/Whidbey Island.

The cozy community is on Possession Sound and just minutes away from Edmonds. It’s the gateway to Whidbey Island and Deception Pass with frequent ferry service to Clinton on the island’s southern tip.

The town of Woodway, just south of Edmonds, was incorporated in 1958, encompassing the original area of Woodway Park and additional acreage to the north and south. WRE/GH LLC.
