Eple — Norwegian for apple — sits on the largest lot in the collection, its meadow garden continuing the orchard that shaped this land for a century. The architecture responds with restraint: a dark charcoal form above, warm vertical-grain wood below, and a glass balcony opening the upper level to Puget Sound.
Inside, the warmth continues. Polished concrete floors, oak cabinetry, stone with gold veining, and brass fixtures create a palette that is grounded yet light. The primary suite spans the western edge, oriented to the water, with a spa bath centered around a freestanding soaking tub and oversized shower.
A flexible upper-level space shares the same view, while a private guest suite anchors the main level. The garden by Studio Terrain restores the orchard through apple and espalier pear, layered with fig, ironwood, pine, and witch hazel — rooted in the land’s history.
