A stunning blend of Bainbridge Island history and modern architectural vision! The original 1950s home brings warmth and character with original hardwood floors and a custom wood-burning fireplace, while a thoughtfully designed 2008 addition creates dramatic open spaces, soaring ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows. Exposed metal beams contrast beautifully with warm wood ceilings, giving this home a distinctive Northwest-modern style. Fresh indoor paint, some new windows. At the heart of it all, the vibrant red kitchen becomes the natural gathering place, surrounded by light-filled living and entertaining spaces that flow effortlessly outdoors. Multiple decks open to an oversized, private fenced yard and established gardens--perfect for entertaining, relaxing or enjoying island life. The main-floor primary suite features outdoor access and a charming bath with an oversized soaking tub. A spacious second main-floor bedroom offers exceptional flexibility and is large enough to potentially create two rooms. Upstairs, a cozy loft provides the perfect retreat for reading, movies or lounging. Just outside the front door, a glass-enclosed office with separate entrance creates an inspiring work-from-home studio or creative space. Enjoy community beach access and an exceptional North Bainbridge location minutes to Bloedel Reserve. Rich in personality, light and architectural interest, this is a truly special Bainbridge Island home where history and modern living come together.
