Description
This exceptional property offers an incredible opportunity to own one of Seattles significant architectural gems. Built in 1929, the home was designed by famed architect Lionel Spike Pries during his years in partnership with William J. Bain. The home was commissioned by local theater entrepreneur John Hamrick, vice-president of Cascade Theaters Corporation. Described by one of the wrought-iron craftsmen who worked on the home as Santa Barbara Spanish with a lot of Spike mixed in, some of the homes details evoke classic Hollywood estates, which some have attributed to Hamricks movie-house background and Pries previous work in California. The style of the home also borrows elements from Hamricks Music Box Theater, designed in the Spanish Renaissance style and believed to be the first theater in Seattle built specifically for sound motion pictures (talkies).The 6,750 square foot home occupies a regal 12,703 square foot lot at the corner of Blenheim Drive and Parkside Drive in the desirable Broadmoor neighborhood. The homes previous and current owners together have made extensive updates to the home while preserving the integrity of Pries design. Original details have been carefully maintained, while modern conveniences have been introduced. Features of the home that reflect Pries special stamp include pointed arched doorways, extensive use of custom ironwork, hammered metal light fixtures, thick walls, complex rooflines, the rounded tower, arched opening to the port cochere.The homes main entrance is accessed through a rectangular gate to an arched loggia that faces a private courtyard. The front garden welcomes you with mature palm trees, climbing roses, and special rhododendrons, along with a colorful water feature. The spacious entry hall has hexagonal terracotta tile floors, arched doorways, and offers access to a charming phone room, coat closet and powder room with adjacent lounge. From the foyer step down into the grand scale living room with a large cast stone fireplace, vaulted ceilings, ornately painted beams, and wrought-iron light fixtures all original to the home. Adjacent to the living room is a cozy library/den with built in bookcases, wet bar, window seat, and smaller fireplace. Wide-planked hardwood floors are found in both these rooms and the dining room, anchoring the home in rustic grandeur. Similar to the living room but on a more intimate scale, the dining room features exposed beams and a custom metal chandelier.The location of the kitchen and adjoining breakfast room are original to the home. High-end appliances were installed in 2003 and include a Miele dishwasher and convection oven, Gaggenau 6-burner gas cooktop and separate oven, and a Sub Zero refrigerator with custom cabinet front. A maids bedroom was removed to add to the kitchen space, which has been updated with cocoa granite counters and stone flooring salvaged from a French chateau. The stone pieces are framed with salvaged oak trim and this unique flooring is carried through to the breakfast room and family room addition. These unique floors are warm both visually and physically, as they are heated throughout by a hot-water sealed system. A butlers pantry with second dishwasher and second main-floor powder room are located here.The magnum opus of the home is the spacious hexagonal family room addition, which flows seamlessly from the breakfast room into a great room configuration. The perimeter walls are comprised of paired lancet windows and French doors that open to the back patio and gardens. The soaring ceilings with exposed structural beam supports are crowned with a unique glass lantern, inspired by architect Gordon Fleeners travels in Europe and his devotion to the polygonal chapter house style he saw there. This is a light-filled room that brings the outdoors-in, honoring the horticultural passion of the prior owners who completely renovated the gardens.The round staircase tower off the entry hall carries you to the second floor, which
