A mid-century abode interpreted for this century, this artistic home in Denny Blaine wants $2.195 million.

The home

The home was built in 1962, and the original mid-century vibe is intact. There are the angles, muted color palette, and banks of windows acting as frames for outdoor spaces– all of which we expect from this style.

But 320 36th Avenue East has been updated. Extensively.

To quote the listing write up, the three bedroom, four bathroom, 3,760 square foot home is a “designer’s interpretation of a mid-century treehouse.”

Among features of this minimalist makeover are an antique floating marble fireplace, a concrete and steel floating staircase, and walls of glass overlooking a lush green landscape.

Instead of the traditional dark wood, we see accents created with edgier materials: concrete floors, patterned wallpaper, metal, and rift cut oak cabinetry.

Those sharper edges are warmed by not only the fireplace in the living room but another in the master suite.

The property

The lot is 8320 square feet in Seattle’s very popular Denny Blaine neighborhood.

There are parks nearby as well as the waterfront.

The deal

In 2013, this home cost $1.485 million; today, with its fresh face to the world, it costs $2.195 million.

Denny Blaine is in demand, and in fact, homes here don’t come to market very often. There are no transactions on record for 98112 in the last month. But based on previous performance in the area, comparable sales suggest this home will sell for more than its asking.
