Property Description
Welcome to the Edmonds MCM Dreamhouse - a rare, true-to-era restoration of a 1960s mid-century modern gem, perfectly positioned minutes from the iconic Edmonds Bowl and just 20 minutes from Seattle. Chet Forshee's original build & personal home. This is not a remodel. This is a restoration. Every choice was deliberate, every detail intentional - from the dramatic sunken living room that anchors the main floor, to the striking double masonry stone fireplace that defines the space. The history of this home has been honored, not erased. Five bedrooms and three and a half baths across a turnkey layout made for living. The fuchsite stone outdoor kitchen extends your entertaining space year-round - a statement piece as functional as it is beautiful. The 3-car garage goes beyond parking, featuring a cedar-lined sauna (originally an added-on bunker for this build) and recreational/fitness room. Inside, a built-in vacuum system keeps things seamlessly low-maintenance. And for those who love a little character - find the secret stairwell tucked off the office, a nod to the home's storied history. Vintage soul, modern finish. A dreamhome for the buyer who knows that good design never goes out of style.
