Stylish house on 13 acres, close to great wineries, hiking, shopping and dining.
Our house was completely remodeled in 2017, creating a stylish open plan living and dining area with vaulted ceilings, a granite and stainless steel dream kitchen with two sinks and a huge island for cooking and conversation -- and four bar stools for breakfast and snacks. We have a big stainless refrigerator with an ice maker, a microwave, a 36-inch gas range, blenders, coffee makers, a full set of top end cookware, good knives, and china, cutlery and glassware for eight or more.
The gathering area next to the kitchen has a wood stove for cozy ambiance in colder months. The decor in the living and dining areas is mid-century modern, heated and cooled by a brand new heat pump. The living room has a leather couch and ottomans, five comfortable chairs, marble and brass side tables, great lighting and a separate reading area. The brass and glass dining table seats 8.
We have a new flat screen smart TV, and full internet service and wi-fi.
The master bedroom has a king bed and a big ensuite bathroom with a heated tile floor, marble counters, and a large walk-in shower with two shower heads. A second large bedroom has a queen bed, and the third and fourth bedrooms have twin-size daybeds with twin-size trundles. These three bedrooms are served by a new hall bathroom with a tub and shower, lots of counter space and seamless surfaces.
Outside two sets of sliding doors in the living room is a covered patio with a table and six chairs, a gas grill and a gas-powered fire pit. We have a wood fire pit and outdoor furniture in the backyard, and a basketball hoop in the driveway. The main garage holds two cars. There is unlimited outside parking. A mudroom entry is accessed from both the front parking area and the garage, with storage for cleaning equipment and house-keeping essentials.
We have a gorgeous office/laundry room, with an ironing board and iron, and a big table for folding clothes and doing crafts. For remote work, we have a computer desk and office chair and a printer with paper and ink.
Over the detached shop is a game room with full-size pool table, dart board, game tables, sound bar and small refrigerator -- perfect for the big kids.
The house is on 13 acres of evergreen woods -- you may see deer and barred owls, and in the summer pick apples and blackberries. We are minutes away from classic bike and hiking trails, such as the 30-mile Burke-Gilman Trail.
The nearest supermarket and gas station are less than a mile away. You will be six miles from downtown Redmond, home of Microsoft headquarters, a Whole Foods, a Costco, a charming world-class shopping center, and a variety of dining spots from McDonalds to gourmet Northwest cuisine. The house is 15 minutes from Woodinville, the Northwest's premier winery destination, with 140 wineries, wine bars and tasting rooms, including the iconic Chateau Ste-Michelle and its musical performance venue. There are artisanal breweries springing up as well.
Downtown Seattle is 25 miles away, and there is a frequent express bus from downtown Redmond. SeaTac International Airport is 30 miles from Redmond.

We are so grateful that you and your family continue to stay at our place, and continue to enjoy it!
We try to provide the best experience we can for our guests -- hope you enjoyed the fall gourd!
Looking forward to the next time -- Heather and Jim
This house was perfect for our annual sister's weekend. It was very clean and spacious. We have stayed in several VRBO properties and this one was one of the best equipped with dishes, cookware and linens. I strongly recommend this property.
We saw a buck and a doe in the yard the first morning; it was a magical experience. Our boys really enjoyed playing pool in the game room. The bed was really comfortable with soft sheets, and the water pressure in the shower was excellent.
We love staying at our home away from home when we come back to the Seattle area. This time we really enjoyed the room above the garage with the kids playing pool each night. The home has everything you need with comfortable beds and kitchen essentials. We are looking forward to going back!
First time I've written a VRBO review, typically the houses I stay at don't really live up to my expectations - but this one did! The house is very clean and well cared for and the best part is you can tell the owners really CARE about it like they live there everyday and they care about your experience. House is well stocked with cookware, linens, supplies, etc. Would highly recommend!
This was a fantastic property. The entire family loved it. Situated on 13 acres, It felt like you were in the country. It offered great privacy and was conveniently located with easy access to downtown Seattle and to Monroe where we attended a wedding. We spent every evening either around the fire pit, on the covered porch or in the game room. And to top it all off the hosts were quick to respond to any inquiry. We can’t wait for our next trip to Seattle to see our nephew again.

We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay! It was perfect. There was enough room in the house for all of us. It was beautifully furnished and everything was well stocked in the kitchen. The game room was a fun place to hangout. The property was huge and we wished we could explore the creek near by.The hosts were very accommodating and their prompt responses to emails or texts. We know where to stay the next time we are back in town!!
The house was perfect for a relaxing long weekend. The inside was very clean and well organized. We would stay here again, excellent overall.

Thank you, David, for your thoughtfulness in leaving us a review. We are so pleased you enjoyed the house, and your family weekend! Please do visit again!
This is our families favorite place to stay in Seattle! It’s a great location next to all the conveniences that you need! The host are wonderful and provide a great home to stay at. Looking forward to coming back and staying again.
This was our third time to stay at this property and for good reason - it's such a lovely home and property that we just can't wait to come back again! The spacious and updated main house is comfortable and clean. The separate game room is a family favorite and beloved by everyone. Beds are comfortable too. And the checkout procedures are very chill compared to other rental properties we've stayed at. The hosts are so friendly and responsive too.

Our second time staying at the property was just like the first - a great experience. Spacious, well-equipped, and clean, the property is a peaceful haven in the midst of visiting family in the area.
We love staying here, I think this is our 10th time! Too many to count and can’t wait to come back again in a couple weeks! Best house, location, and hosts! It’s a gem of a property!

Our family had a wonderful time in this comfortable, roomy home.
It had everything we needed and we enjoyed the spacious kitchen and had fun in the game room. It’s also so close to all kinds of fun outdoor activities. We would love to come stay again sometime.

Thank you, Amy, for your kind review! We are so glad you were able to make yourself at home and enjoy the outdoors and the game room. And the kitchen! We'd love to have you again some time!
While this place is just a short distance from anything you might want or need, it's easy to feel like you're out in the forest. My partner and I loved relaxing here.

Thank you, Todd! We enjoyed having you both, and are so glad you appreciated the woods. We saw a deer and a bear on the cameras just yesterday!

This was our second stay at this property and it was even more lovely than before. The property is very private and has lots of amenities. Our family loved spending time in the game room, in addition to the comfort of the house itself. The beds are very comfortable and the house is very spacious. We hope to stay here again one day.
Everything we needed for our week long visit to Washington! Hosts were very help

About the host
Hosted by Property Manager/Owner
We are Heather and Jim, and we live in Juneau, Alaska, where I’m a fisheries consultant and Jim is a newly retired marine scientist and administrator. We have four grown children and five grandchildren, with three of those families in the Seattle/Bellingham area— we use this second home in Redmond for family get-togethers and a base in the Pacific Northwest.
The house has been in Jim’s family for decades and he personally added over 800 trees to the existing woods. Jim cut and milled trees from those woods to build the garage/shop with the game room on the second floor.
