About this property

Welcome to the Schickler House—an extraordinary architectural landmark where iconic Post War NW Modernism meets the beauty of Puget Sound. Originally designed by noted Seattle architect Ralf E. Decker, this one-of-a-kind residence makes an unforgettable first impression with its striking covered portico, signature butterfly roof and dramatic setting above 90 feet of private shoreline. Set on a secluded half-acre, walls of glass capture sweeping views of the Sound, Olympic Mountains and nearby islands, filling the home with natural light and creating a constant connection to the water. Exposed beams, rich wood paneling and aggregate floors honor the home’s mid-century soul, while thoughtful restoration of the systems, plumbing and beautifully updated bathrooms brings comfort, confidence and style. French doors open to expansive patios, lawn and the beach beyond, inviting effortless entertaining, quiet mornings and sunset gatherings. The flexible two-level plan offers three bedrooms, including a serene primary suite with an adjoining den, plus generous spaces for living and entertaining. Follow the switchback trail to your private beach, deeded tidelands and permitted buoy—launch a paddleboard, set out by boat or simply savor life at the water’s edge. The important work has been done; the next owner need only bring their vision and personal touch to this truly irreplaceable Puget Sound retreat. All within easy reach of neighborhood parks, community amenities & Sea-Tac Airport.
