SEATTLE DADU — BACKYARD COTTAGES — COMMUNITY ARCHITECTURE

SEATTLE, WASHINGTON

This well-crafted modern Tudor-style cottage in Seattle’s treasured Montlake neighborhood brings forward a model of urban density, while providing a private home. A gracious entry brings you to the great room with vaulted ceilings, dark-wood beams, and loads of natural light from all four sides of the home. The kitchen is designed with abundant easy-to-use storage and generous counter space. The dining area’s large glass doors open to a patio facing inward to the property’s shared courtyard that connects the private homes and provides opportunities to gather. A lot of home fits into the 1,225 square feet with three bedrooms, two baths, flexible utility space, and creative storage. Two entrances make access to both levels of the home straightforward. 

Square feet: 1,225

Green Design: 4-Star Built Green, electric car charging ready, co-living model, shared open amenity space

After partnering with CAST on multiple projects, I can easily say they are my favorite architects to work alongside. Matt Hutchins in particular is an empathetic and insightful architect who listens closely to the goals for how to use a space and then provides creative and beautiful options that exceed expectations. Look no further than Matt and the fantastic team at CAST!
