Every Detail Considered

Authentic Architecture

Presenting one of the rarest waterfront offerings of our time. Steeped in the enduring coastal northeast tradition, this authentic Long Island-style shingle home was designed by architect Steven Sullivan. The grounds are a collaboration of epic proportions between landscape architect Richard Haag and stone artist Richard Rhodes. Nestled on Mercer Island’s coveted north end, this sprawling shingle-clad masterpiece evokes the classical symmetries and authentic detail of Eastern seaboard Americana architecture.

Floorplans

Form, Function and Flow

The 10,030 square foot floorplan is optimized to showcase the home’s views, to provide elegant entertaining spaces, and to offer private personal escapes. Five bedrooms and eight individual bathrooms span across the home’s different levels, including the pool-level guest house. Special spaces serve different lifestyle functions – sports, play, hobbies and media.
