The Bellevue Area Residence sits on a hillside with a west facing terrace and covered porch affording views of Lake Washington. Located in a neighborhood with an unusually restricting height limit, the home enjoys high ceilings in its light-filled, main floor living spaces, as well as in its lower level bedrooms.

The massing of this home and the welcoming front porch is very pleasing. I'm guessing it has the square footage of a McMansion, but there is nothing McMansion about its style.
The L-shaped plan is a great way to make a statement of about entry. The garage is easy to access and connects to the main house which is set back into the site and aligned on axis with arrival. This house conveys a clear sense of direction and purpose in a traditional style.
Wraparounds offer different areas and activities within the same porch; the front is public, and the sides and back can be private.There's something about this wraparound porch that says, "If we don't know you, ring the bell on the front door. Otherwise, come around the side and join us."
