About this home
A rare development opportunity on one of Magnolia’s premier residential parcels with commanding views over Shilshole Bay. This expansive home on a 18,600 sq ft lot not only captures sweeping water and territorial vistas but also provides easy pedestrian access across the Locks into Ballard. The existing residence features distinctive architectural elements including wood-clad ceilings, spiral staircases, stained glass, skylights, and a dramatic sunroom opening to a poolside patio. Two large garages and dual driveways provide excellent access, storage, and flexibility, supporting a range of options for redevelopment, expansion, or a custom new build.

Very unique, quirky mcm with lots of surprises on different levels. With some updating this would be a great house. Don’t miss the giant ballroom that opens to the pool, you’ll find it by using the entrance in one of the main floor bedrooms.

This will take a LOT of work to bring back to spectacular. But if you have vision, this could be a real gem. It's almost a house lost in the swinging 60's. Very groovy.
