Property Description
Ideally situated on Mercer Island's sought-after south end, this beautifully refreshed 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home offers the perfect blend of privacy, comfort, and everyday convenience. A gracious entrance sits above the street and welcomes you home. Bathed in natural light, the dramatic living room showcases soaring vaulted ceilings and stunning floor-to-ceiling cathedral windows that frame peaceful views of the surrounding trees, creating a warm and welcoming first impression. Fresh interior and exterior paint, new kitchen appliances, and move-in-ready condition make settling in effortless.
