MT. BAKER RESIDENCE
3844 37th Avenue South
Seattle Washington

Located in the prestigious Mount Baker neighborhood, this dramatic home sits perched on a hill, high above the street. The design captures the sweeping views of the Rainier Valley with floor to ceiling glass while at the same time respecting the privacyof the occupants in adjacent homes. The 3,600 sqft home includes four bedrooms, two and a half baths, and a large open living floor with ten foot-tall ceilings and a two car garage with a 400 sqft roof deck above.

Additionally, the home includes a separate, one bedroom apartment unit on the lower level, complete with a wrap-around patio. The structure was conceived as the juxtaposition of three pure volumes, each containing a unique programmatic element. In turn, each element is clad with clear cedar, cement board or concrete to emphasize the massing.

There’s a squash court, bowling alley, tennis court, 50-seat screening room, heated marble driveway and helipad. All eight of your limousines will fit in the underground garage.

Palatial homes and high property prices are common in New York’s favorite high-end resort area.

The 14 gardens include a crabapple allée; vegetable garden; lily walk; and rose, hydrangea and butterfly gardens. Of course, there are also the three ponds stocked with fish.

The triplex penthouse at the Pierre is the ne plus ultra of Manhattan apartment living—if one may prosaically call it that. The hotel’s top three floors, including the original Pierre ballroom with its 23-foot-high ceilings, offer 360-degree views of New York City from windows and terraces. The home features an opulent black marble staircase, 20-foot French windows, double reception rooms and a paneled library. Should the asking price seem too steep, the property is also available in two parts, at $11 million and $59 million. The latter, incidentally, would still make it onto our list. The listing brokers are Elizabeth Lee Sample and Brenda S. Powers at Brown Harris Stevens.
