About this property.

Perched above Lake Desire on 1.4 acres, this custom 2017-built home serves up everyday luxury—soaring eagles, sparkling water, and mountain peaks, all drenched in sunlight that makes even Mondays feel like a vacation. Every room frames the lake, blending seamless indoor comfort with nature’s beauty right outside. Step inside and you’ll find polished hardwoods, inviting oak cabinetry, a chef’s gas range begging for both quick breakfasts and dinner parties, and a cozy fireplace to end your days by. The main level offers true rambler living with a roomy primary suite, practical laundry room, private den for working from home, and a proper dining space for hosting. Want flexibility? The walkout lower level—with its own living space, kitchenette, patio, and exclusive laundry—makes room for multi-gen living, home office setups, or rental guests, with sunlight providing the finishing touch. Step onto your balcony for coffee or a glass of wine and watch the lake reflect your new pace of life. The oversized 2-car garage gives you space for cars and hobbies, and driveway parking is enough for every gathering. Hidden just above the water yet close to everything, you’re minutes from WA-169 and I-90 for an easy commute, with boat launches, trails, shopping, local eats, and the Night Farmers Market to fill your weekends. Both decadent and practical, this Lake Desire retreat delivers daily delight and lasting value. Come tour your future eagle nest retreat today!
