New Construction Waterfront Home
Just Sold by Susan Grosten
Recently I had the honor of representing clients on the purchase of this incredible new home on the waterfront of Cedar Heights Bainbridge Island, north of Rolling Bay. Sited on high-bank waterfront, the views from this home are other worldly with a feeling that you are viewing Puget Sound from the heavens above. Beyond the beautiful and busy shipping lanes are the Seattle skyline and the Cascade Mountain range.
Sunshine fills the living room through a giant wall of artfully placed windows, bringing the view in along with the warmth of the sun. Artisan details include built-ins, hardwood floors, and a stunning fireplace clad in stone and a wood mantle.
The glamorous kitchen is warm and ready for breakfast meetings, entertaining friends and family, or a quiet dinner of takeout at home. The Butler’s Pantry is sure to impress even the most serious of home chefs!
Upstairs you will find the opulent Primary Suite, complete with a gas fireplace and an en suite bath to rival any resort spa.

My expertise in negotiation, the Bainbridge Island real estate market, and my professional reputation among other real estate professionals is the leverage you need in a Seller’s market.

Bainbridge Island Studio Tour | Winter Tour 2021

Bainbridge Island Studio Tour
December 3rd through December 5th 2021
The Bainbridge Island Studio Tour is a twice-annual, free, self-guided art show on Bainbridge Island, Washington. This is a fantastic opportunity to discover the beauty and craftsmanship of local, handmade art and do your holiday shopping for truly unique gifts.
With 40 juried artists, you’ll find quality, hand-crafted art where you can meet the artist and buy directly from them. This is the 38th year for the tour, which will take place in six local studios and community halls.
There are a variety of art mediums on display such as jewelry, pottery, paintings, fiber, mixed media, photography, and glass. The artists create original works, incorporating new methods, styles, and raw materials. Unique art forms include detailed paper cut designs, whimsical fairies and frogs, felted wearables, tall metal water towers, steam-bent wood, and repurposed metal yard art.
I have always enjoyed meeting the artists and discussing their work and vision in person. You are buying hand-crafted works of art, supporting the local economy, and helping artists to thrive.
As an ardent supporter of the local artists of Bainbridge Island, The Studio Tour is something I always look forward to, and I hope you will join me on tour!

Lifestyle Changes Lead to Home Building Changes

Finding Our New Home In Our New World
The Barnaby Home
Since the initial quarantines of COVID-19 and now the aftermath of continued caution; most desirable home amenities look quite different than even 5 years ago. A home office used to be relegated to sprawling suburban homes for executives and accent spaces that almost no one used, like the old kitchen office space where Mom paid bills and organized her recipes.
The lifestyle changes that COVID-19 has born, do not seem to be going away all too soon and homebuyers are keen to find a work/life balance, at home. Flexible spaces in newer townhomes are becoming quite common in the Townhome trend, with garage level rooms that can be used as an office, guest room – or both.
During the early months of lockdown, quarantines, and sheltering in place, a survey called The America at Home Study was launched online to understand the design changes consumers would want in new communities and homes. On the heels of this research, The America at Home Study Concept Home was born, and they named it Barnaby.
The concept, design, and the forethought of looking forward to something more tangible than paint colors and open vs. closed kitchen cabinets warrants deep consideration. Does your home still serve most of your needs? Each home has comprises, but sometimes they start to add up and you might find yourself living in a functionally obsolescent situation.
If you are dreaming of a new home that better serves your lifestyle and footprint, give me a call and let’s start planning your next move.
New World New Home.
