Set on more than two private acres overlooking Puget Sound and the Olympic Mountains, this extraordinary Highlands estate is a rare union of architectural significance, historic landscape design, and timeless luxury. Its story begins in 1927, when the Olmsted Brothers designed the estate's celebrated gardens and grounds. In 1934, renowned architect Harrie T. Lindeberg completed the residence, one of only two he designed in the Pacific Northwest. Meticulously restored in 2023, the home was reimagined by New York designer Clive Lonstein and later featured in Architectural Digest. Interiors blend historic character with modern comfort through hand-plastered walls, bespoke millwork, radiant heated floors, Waterworks fixtures, Loro Piana drapery, Hermès and hand-painted wallcoverings, and exceptional craftsmanship throughout. Outside, mature gardens, natural spring-fed ponds, sweeping lawns, a spectacular rose garden, and elegant terraces frame panoramic views while creating an extraordinary setting for entertaining or quiet retreat. Nearly a century in the making, this is one of the Pacific Northwest's most important legacy estates, offering an unrivaled combination of provenance, privacy, and enduring design.

A Georgian Estate by Charles Platt - one of America’s most revered architects - set on 7.26± bluffside acres in the gated Highlands. Regarded as one of the Pacific Coast’s finest examples of Georgian architecture. Inspired by the great country homes of Italy and France, Platt believed that beauty lay in symmetry, clarity, and balance. This estate brings those ideals to life through perfectly proportioned rooms and an effortless flow between architecture and landscape. The home unfolds with quiet drama. A grand, mural-adorned drawing room, paneled library, and formal dining room all frame panoramic views of Puget Sound and the Olympic Mountains. Every detail from soaring ceilings and acanthus-leaf cornices to herringbone hardwoods and a sweeping staircase reflects a profound understanding of classical design and timeless refinement. Olmsted’s vision of naturalistic beauty is reflected in the grounds. Open lawns stretch toward the bluff, while woodland paths weave through groves of mature trees and sculpted gardens. A tranquil pond anchors the landscape, and surrounding greenery creates a seamless connection between the residence and the land. It is a setting designed for both retreat and discovery. An extraordinary convergence of architecture, landscape and legacy - without precedent in the architectural history of the Pacific Northwest.
