13347 12th Avenue NE

A 1957 mid-century modern jewel, this Robert E Cooper home is a PNW design triumph. Set on an expansive forested lot, this thoughtfully landscaped retreat is a gorgeous in-city escape, both removed from, yet connected to the best of the city. Designed for effortless single-level living, its low-slung profile, distinctive rooflines, vaulted tongue-and-groove ceilings, original stonework and expansive walls of glass embody classic mid-century modernism. Clerestory windows and skylights frame the interiors with natural light. The grounds are designed to connect indoor and outdoor rooms, with Japanese maples, rhododendrons, ferns, stone walls and guided paths. A reflecting pond and sculptural, cantilevered bridge, greenhouse and integrated landscape lighting create a serene oasis alongside Cascade Mountain sunrises. A detached modern studio with vaulted ceiling, clerestory windows, custom built-ins, kitchenette, bath and garden access offers a beautifully designed retreat for guests, work or creative space. Amenities include Portuguese cork floors, heat-pump heating and cooling, wood-burning fireplace, copper plumbing, smart security, Wi-Fi-controlled lighting & water features, Samsung Frame TVs and high-end appliances. Enjoy unparalleled urban connections with TWO nearby light rail stations (Pinehurst Station, a short walk away, opens 9/30!). Jackson Park Golf Course & trail are steps away, with Northgate's vibrant urban center redevelopment and amenities adding location equity.
