Serene 4BR Mid-Century Oasis w/ Spa, Private Beach & Gorgeous Views

Welcome to our thoughtfully restored mid-century modern home "The Hidden Inlet Home", tucked away on the peaceful Cooper Point peninsula in Olympia, Washington. Originally built in 1970 by a local architect known for his work on iconic local landmarks, this home has been lovingly renovated with care and craftsmanship by ETA Architecture of San Francisco. This is more than just a home — it’s a labor of love where every detail was designed to honor its mid-century roots while offering the best of modern living.

As you step inside, you’ll be greeted by expansive windows that bring the beauty of nature indoors. The living room is the heart of the home, featuring a stunning 15-foot cathedral ceiling and a grand fireplace. From the large picture windows, you’ll enjoy breathtaking views of Eld Inlet, part of the Puget Sound, framed by the majestic Olympic Mountains in the distance. It's a setting that feels like a hidden retreat, surrounded by towering trees, where deer are regular visitors.

One of the highlights of your stay will undoubtedly be the private beach, accessible by a secluded staircase that leads directly from the house. The beach offers an intimate and peaceful escape, complete with multiple seating areas featuring chairs and sunbeds for lounging by the water. It’s the perfect spot to relax, enjoy the quiet, or try your hand at gathering fresh clams, oysters, and mussels for dinner. Nature lovers will also appreciate the variety of bird species and water wildlife, and you might even be lucky enough to spot the occasional whale gracing the inlet. We also provide paddleboards and life jackets, so you can explore the water at your leisure.

The primary bedroom is a peaceful sanctuary with vaulted ceilings, a large TV, and direct access to a covered patio balcony. Here, you can start your mornings with coffee while soaking in panoramic views of the water and mountains. The spa-like bathroom invites you to unwind with a steam shower, a luxurious freestanding jetted tub, and heated floors. We’ve added personal touches like custom vanities repurposed from original Brasilia cabinets, blending vintage charm with modern luxury.

The three additional bedrooms offer a mix of comfort and versatility. One doubles as a family lounge with a sofa bed and dedicated office space, perfect for remote work. Each room features large windows, inviting natural light and scenic views that reflect the home’s connection to its stunning surroundings.

The kitchen is a dream for anyone who loves to cook or entertain, with a massive 15-foot island, Fisher & Paykel appliances, and custom cabinetry that seamlessly integrates modern convenience. Whether you’re preparing a gourmet meal or gathering for casual dining, this space is designed to bring people together. The adjoining formal dining room comfortably seats eight, offering the perfect setting for memorable meals with family and friends.

Step outside to find even more spaces for relaxation. The front patio offers a cozy spot to enjoy the fresh air before entering the home, while the covered patio off the kitchen is ideal for unwinding with comfortable seating and a bar cabinet. The large deck off the living room is furnished with modern Adirondack chairs, perfect for taking in the forest and water views. And for the ultimate retreat, the outdoor spa with a jetted hot tub, set beneath a custom pergola with privacy drapes, provides a serene spot to relax while gazing at the incredible scenery.

The home’s architecture unfolds like a journey. As you approach, the house gradually reveals itself, hidden from the street by lush landscaping. You’ll be welcomed by a modern pivot door that leads you into a warm, inviting space. Inside, the mid-century design shines through, with multi-level living spaces connected by floor-to-ceiling windows that flood the home with natural light. Design elements like slatted wood walls and a floating stone fireplace mantel add an understated elegance throughout.

This home is truly special to us, and we’ve poured our hearts into making it a beautiful, comfortable space for anyone who stays here. Whether you’re relaxing in the spa, enjoying the private beach, or simply taking in the stunning views, we hope you’ll feel the love and care we’ve put into every corner. We can’t wait to welcome you and help you create memories in this one-of-a-kind mid-century modern retreat.
