Property Description
Nestled in the heart of Sumner, this stunning home stands as one of the neighborhood's most iconic properties. Designed by Anthony Wilder Design Build, it is a national Chrysalis Award winner for its exceptional whole-house renovation in 2004. This transformation was thoughtfully crafted to improve the home's flow, bring in more natural light, and create an abundance of storage. The integration of the old and new is so well-executed that it feels as though it was always meant to be this way.
The main level is nothing short of exceptional. The chef's kitchen is a masterpiece, adorned with premium Wood-Mode inset cabinetry, quartz stone countertops and backsplashes, two Miele dishwashers, a Sub-Zero refrigerator seamlessly integrated into the cabinetry, and a built-in Miele Nespresso machine for coffee enthusiasts. Dual-fuel Dacor 48" range which includes two ovens and a six-burner cooktop make it a dream for any chef, while the expansive island offers seating and robust storage. Adjacent to the kitchen is a pantry with customizable and movable shelving for added convenience.
The family room is both inviting and functional, featuring a cozy gas fireplace, custom-built cabinetry with hidden storage, and a cleverly concealed TV mounted on a movable arm. The room is equipped with surround sound, a programmable lighting system, and two ceiling fans, creating the perfect atmosphere for relaxation or entertaining. Just outside, the flagstone patio is perfect for entertaining, with two ceiling fans, outdoor speakers, and lighting to enhance your outdoor gatherings.
A touch of elegance can be found in the formal dining room, which boasts gorgeous glass pocket doors, integrated ceiling speakers, and custom-designed draperies with grass shades. Meanwhile, the living room offers a wood-burning fireplace (re-lined but never used), along with thoughtfully designed draperies and shades that enhance its timeless charm.
The study is a quiet retreat, complete with radiant heated floors, an extended bay window, enlarged front windows, and Brookhaven cabinetry. Integrated sound system bookcase speakers add to the ambiance, making it an ideal space for productivity or relaxation.
This level also includes a powder room, a functional workstation, and well-designed storage closets tailored for both adults and children.
On the second floor, the primary suite is a true sanctuary. It features vaulted ceilings, custom-built Wood-Mode cabinetry, a Juliet balcony, and a ceiling fan. The en-suite bathroom is equally impressive, offering dual sinks, Travertine stone, ample storage, ceiling heat lamp, and a shower illuminated by a skylight. A laundry room, conveniently accessed via the primary bedroom or the hallway through pocket doors, features a Whirlpool washer and dryer, a built-in ironing board, abundant Brookhaven cabinetry with Corian countertops, and ceiling speakers, making laundry a seamless part of daily living. Two additional bedrooms on this level are spacious and include built-in shelving and abundant storage, with the option to connect them for a shared layout. A full bathroom and a half bathroom with Brookhaven cabinetry and Corian countertops complete this floor.
The third level provides even more flexibility with two additional bedrooms. One is perfectly equipped as an office, complete with a sound system, a ceiling fan, and creative cubby storage under the eaves. The fifth bedroom offers plenty of storage, and both rooms are serviced by a full bathroom with Brookhaven cabinetry and Corian countertops.
The lower level provides additional living space with a recreation room featuring ceiling speakers, a wood-burning fireplace with a re-lined chimney (never used), and a full bathroom with a wheelchair-width walk-in shower. The utility and work area includes a secondary laundry hookup, a utility sink and updated systems, including a two-zone HVAC system installed in 2020, a new 75 gallon
