A Closer Look at the Setting and Improvements
Since fall 2024, they’ve invested approximately $200,000 in thoughtful upgrades — each one enhancing the home’s beauty and function while preserving its peaceful setting.
Tucked away off a quiet cul-de-sac on Bainbridge Island’s desirable south end, this property offers exceptional privacy with sweeping views of Rich Passage and Mount Rainier. The southern exposure floods the home and gardens with light year-round, while beautifully maintained grounds create the feeling of a private park. Walking distance to Gazzam Lake’s trail network and minutes from Lynwood Center, the location balances serenity with convenience.
The grounds are a standout feature and were once featured in the Bainbridge In Bloom garden tour, a reflection of their careful design and upkeep. Three elegant fountains and a secluded firepit area set a tranquil tone, while the bocce court and expansive multi-level deck invite gatherings. The deck itself has been updated with new composite surfaces, glass railings, and a steel-framed hot tub positioned perfectly to take in the view. A charming covered bridge with stone steps crosses a seasonal creek, tying together the upper and lower gardens. Recent additions include $60,000 in dramatic landscape and driveway lighting, plus a fully repaired and updated irrigation system to keep the grounds lush through the seasons.
Inside, the home’s design takes full advantage of its southern light and panoramic views. High ceilings, slate and hardwood floors, and new wool Berber carpet give it a refined, Northwest feel. The chef’s kitchen features a Wolf range, 48-inch Sub-Zero refrigerator, and a sunny breakfast nook overlooking the gardens. French doors in the living room open to the deck and backyard, blending indoor and outdoor living seamlessly.
Upstairs, the primary suite captures vistas of Mount Rainier and Rich Passage, with a spa-like bath and custom California Closet walk-in. A second main-floor primary suite offers deck access and a beautifully finished en-suite bath which is ideal for guests or multigenerational living. Another upstairs bedroom with water views, an adjacent full bath, and an expansive rec room with vaulted ceilings and skylights provide plenty of flexible space. The lower level includes a family room, bonus area, ¾ bath, wet bar, and private entry — perfect for guests, extended family, or an independent living setup.
Practical upgrades complement the beauty. A new roof by Integrity Roofing (2024) and a fresh exterior repaint (2025) ensure durability and curb appeal. The electrical panel was replaced and relocated, the automatic standby generator serviced, and four new Andersen windows were added to the primary suite. The garage was completely reimagined — now fully finished with epoxy floors, showroom lighting, new door, 48-amp Autel EV charger, and ample storage.
Energy-efficient systems include a heat pump for heating and cooling, on-demand hot water, and a leased 500-gallon propane tank. The home is on public water with a whole-house filtration system and a three-bedroom septic, recently inspected by the county.
Every improvement — from the refreshed interior to the lighting that softly illuminates the gardens at night — reflects a home that has been cared for, modernized, and thoughtfully elevated for its next chapter.
From summer evenings in the magically lit garden or afternnons relaxing in the hot tub, this home captures the best of Bainbridge Island living. Reach out to Danny Varona with Realogics Sotheby’s International Realty to learn more or to experience this property firsthand.
