The layered mix of mulch beds, mature low-profile plantings and river rock creates beautiful texture and dimension while still keeping the overall design wonderfully low maintenance and view-friendly. And there is still room left for the next owner to personalize the landscaping with their own flowers, shrubs or seasonal color if they want to put their own stamp on the property over time. The use of river rock throughout also helps tremendously with drainage while adding that clean polished waterfront aesthetic that fits the home so well. Instead of sinking into muddy lake-bottom muck while trying to swim or launch kayaks, the area just off the bulkhead features a pea gravel lake floor, making the waterfront experience dramatically cleaner, more comfortable and much more enjoyable for swimming and water access.
The built-in fire pit sits right at the water’s edge on the flagstone patio creating the ultimate gathering spot for sunset drinks, late-night conversations and aggressively over-toasted marshmallows. From this angle, you can also appreciate how thoughtfully designed the shoreline access is, with those extra-wide low-profile steps gently connecting the lawn down toward the waterfront without feeling steep or awkward to navigate. And then there is the dock situation, which is seriously impressive. Composite Trex decking keeps maintenance lower while giving the dock a clean polished look, and at 42 feet long with an 8x20 platform at the end plus a 10-foot connecting ramp, there is plenty of room to fully enjoy the lake lifestyle. The 4,500-pound boat lift stays with the property too, which is a huge bonus, along with the jet ski dock. And yes, the jet ski itself may even stay if the buyers want a little project with a potentially very fun payoff.
So many waterfront homes end up sacrificing functional yard space because everything slopes aggressively toward the water, but here the lawn stays surprisingly level and open, creating the perfect setup for croquet, lawn games, barefoot summer evenings or simply stretching out in the grass watching the lake shimmer in the background. The terraced design keeps the property visually interesting while still making the outdoor spaces feel comfortable and accessible. You can also spot the three green septic lids tucked neatly into the lawn on the left side, identifying the septic system location for this property, which is rated for a three-bedroom system. So many waterfront homes end up sacrificing functional yard space because everything slopes aggressively toward the water, but here the lawn stays surprisingly level and open, creating the perfect setup for croquet, lawn games, barefoot summer evenings or simply stretching out in the grass watching the lake shimmer in the background.
The terraced rock and riverstone landscaping creates texture and dimension without cluttering the sightlines, so your lake views stay wonderfully open instead of disappearing behind overgrown shrubs every summer. The low-profile plantings soften everything naturally while still keeping maintenance manageable, and the flagstone pathway leading down toward the lower patio and bulkhead feels substantial, polished and incredibly inviting. The lawn stays lush with front and back sprinkler systems already on timers, which means less time dragging hoses around and more time actually enjoying the property. And the setting on the lake itself is especially appealing too. This section of Long Lake has a quieter cove-like feel because it sits slightly tucked away from the faster straightaway boating traffic, giving you a more peaceful waterfront experience while still fully enjoying all the recreation the lake offers.
Tucked into the corner of this quieter cove-like section, the home enjoys a more peaceful setting removed from the heaviest concentration of fast-moving boat traffic, giving the waterfront a calmer, more serene atmosphere for relaxing, swimming and soaking in the views. But the beauty is you are not isolated from the fun at all. Step onto the dock and within moments you are right out into the main body of the lake ready for wake-surfing, tubing, wakeboarding, paddleboarding or long sunset cruises. At roughly 307 acres, Long Lake is large enough to genuinely enjoy motorized lake recreation while still maintaining the beauty and community feel people love about waterfront living. It is the best of both worlds, peaceful where you live and playful whenever you want it to be.
This aerial really highlights how intelligently the entire property was planned. From the street side, mature cedar trees create a wonderful sense of privacy and separation, giving the home that tucked-away peaceful feeling the second you arrive. But then as the property opens toward the lake, the landscaping intentionally drops to a much lower profile so the water views stay completely unobstructed from the living spaces and outdoor entertaining areas. It is such a thoughtful balance between privacy and maximizing the setting. And somehow the storage situation in this home just keeps getting more impressive too. The garage includes pull-down attic stairs leading to storage spanning the full width of the garage overhead, plus there are additional interior storage areas not even shown in the photos. There is even full-height crawlspace storage below the home, which is the kind of thing people wildly underestimate until they suddenly need a place for holiday décor, camping gear and more.
The extra-wide driveway creates such an easy arrival experience for guests while also making everyday life dramatically more convenient, especially at a waterfront property where coolers, paddleboards, groceries and random lake gear always seem to multiply. The driveway flows directly to both the covered front porch and the flagstone path leading toward the water, making loading and unloading feel effortless instead of turning into an accidental CrossFit workout. The three-car garage setup is fantastic too, with an 18’ wide double door plus a separate 9’ single bay, both with impressive 8’ height clearance ready for taller trucks and SUVs. Inside, the garage includes extensive storage racks that stay with the home along with a utility sink for cleanup convenience. Framing everything outside are mature low-maintenance plantings and river rock landscaping that keep the property looking beautifully established without demanding endless upkeep every weekend.
The horseshoe setup here is not some sad rusty stake shoved randomly into the lawn. This is a legit dedicated recreation area complete with dual sand pits, proper throwing platforms and enough room to fully embrace your inner campground champion. It feels polished, intentional and honestly pretty impressive. The surrounding lawn is beautifully maintained too, giving the property that lush green park-like feel without becoming overwhelming to care for since the quarter-acre lot size strikes such a nice balance between spaciousness and manageability. Mature cedar and deciduous trees frame the yard beautifully, bringing privacy, shade and gorgeous seasonal color while still keeping the home visually connected to the outdoor spaces.
This front entry feels welcoming before you even reach the door. The approach is wonderfully easy with just three low-profile steps leading up to the covered porch, making everyday access feel comfortable and approachable while still maintaining that stately custom-home presence. And the architectural details continue impressing even on the non-waterfront side of the house. The windows are beautifully designed with divided-light detailing between the panes plus operable lower sections that allow fresh airflow without disrupting the clean visual lines of the home. Thoughtful details like that make such a difference over time. The roof also deserves a little appreciation because it was replaced in 2017, giving buyers the peace of mind of knowing one of the home’s biggest systems already has plenty of life left ahead. The covered porch feels substantial and welcoming with its wood-paneled ceiling, aggregate concrete and stately architectural lines that immediately give custom home vibes.
This fireplace is having a moment, and frankly it deserves one, wrapped in richly layered stone stretching all the way to the top of the vaulted ceilings, it anchors the entire living room with this incredible mix of warmth and scale. The tones are fantastic too, creamy neutrals, weathered grays, caramel undertones, all tied together with a stunning live-edge wood mantel that adds just enough organic texture to keep the room from feeling overly formal. On both sides, illuminated built-ins create a library-meets-display-gallery vibe with lower cabinetry ready to hide board games, blankets and all the little things real life brings with it. Then the giant lake-facing windows step back in to remind you Long Lake is still the star of the show. Add the ceiling fan plus brand-new 2025 gas furnace, HVAC and heat pump system, and this home delivers beauty with the kind of practical peace of mind.
Vaulted white ceilings bounce natural light through the space all day long, while those soft fawn-toned walls wrap everything in this rich cozy warmth that keeps the scale from feeling cold or cavernous. Then your eye catches the architecture. The beams, cross beams and structural pillars subtly define the living room from the kitchen and dining areas while still preserving the open flow and massive sightlines toward Long Lake beyond. And those windows… wow. Floor-to-ceiling glass completely floods the space with water views and natural light, turning the lake into part of the interior design. The oatmeal-toned carpeting softens everything beautifully underfoot too, adding another layer of comfort to this nearly 3,000 sq ft lakefront retreat that clearly understands atmosphere.
From the living room you can see straight through toward the foyer, the den entry and the kitchen beyond, giving the whole main level this connected, easy flow where conversations naturally carry from space to space without everybody feeling piled into one giant room together. The island seating peeking through from the kitchen helps tie everything together socially, while the architectural beams and subtle room divisions still give each area its own identity and purpose. It is open concept for people who still appreciate a little structure and definition. And the layout absolutely shines the moment guests walk through the front door, because this beautiful vaulted living room immediately becomes the visual centerpiece of the home. Built in 2003 and clearly cared for with intention ever since, the house has that rare feeling of being both spacious and genuinely well loved.
From the sink, your sightline stretches straight across the dining room and out through an incredible wall of glass wrapping the lakeside of the home. Everywhere you look, it is water, sky and light. The architecture frames it beautifully too, with the pillars subtly separating the living spaces while still letting the views flow uninterrupted from room to room. And those windows were chosen smartly. The upper portions stay wide uninterrupted panes of glass, while the lower sections slide open to bring in fresh lake breezes without chopping the view into awkward pieces. Such a thoughtful detail. The kitchen itself keeps the warmth going with maple shaker cabinetry, brushed nickel hardware and stainless appliances, while those five blown-glass pendant lights hanging above the peninsula add just enough sparkle and personality overhead.
Dinner here comes with a view people would happily pay resort prices for. From this dining room, the massive windows frame Long Lake so beautifully that the whole experience starts feeling more boutique waterfront retreat than everyday life. With 57 feet of waterfront directly outside, the water becomes part of every meal, every holiday, every slow morning coffee situation. The glass door leading to the deck keeps the indoor-outdoor flow effortless too, making sunset dinners and summer entertaining feel ridiculously easy. Overhead, the frosted glass chandelier with brushed nickel detailing strikes that perfect balance between classic and contemporary, polished enough to elevate the room while still keeping the whole space relaxed and welcoming.
This deck was designed for maximum lake appreciation. The glass-panel railings are wonderfully unobtrusive, letting the water, sky and shoreline stay visually front and center instead of blocking everything behind bulky balusters. Combined with the Trex composite decking, the whole space feels polished, durable and refreshingly low maintenance. And because the deck is completely open overhead, you get the full sensory experience of waterfront living, sunrise colors reflecting across the lake, warm midday sun, evening breezes and star-filled skies overhead at night. The east-facing exposure gives this deck a really comfortable rhythm throughout the day too, bright and cheerful in the mornings while the home itself helps provide some relief from stronger afternoon heat later on. And underneath, the waterproof decking system protects the covered patio below so both levels of outdoor living space stay functional, comfortable and ready for entertaining year-round.
This waterfront hardscaping is absolutely beautiful and completely transforms the shoreline into usable outdoor living space instead of just “yard that happens to touch water.” The wide flagstone-style bulkhead walkway gives you room to set up chairs, lounge seating or front-row sunset viewing spots while still keeping easy access along the water’s edge. And the practical details here are fantastic too. Kayak storage and paddleboard stands sit right near the shoreline for quick grab-and-go lake access, while the nearby outlet and water spigot make cleanup, charging and entertaining dramatically easier. The stonework itself feels substantial and thoughtfully done, creating this polished terraced connection between the lawn, patio and lake that looks incredible while still feeling relaxed and natural within the waterfront setting.
From above, you can really appreciate how much this property packs into its beautifully planned quarter-acre footprint. The terraced landscaping, expansive outdoor living spaces, waterfront access and carefully designed transitions between each level all work together to create this incredible sense of flow from the street all the way down to the shoreline. Situated in the Long Lake Country Club neighborhood, the home captures that relaxed resort-style energy where everyday life starts feeling a little more like vacation mode. There are spaces here for entertaining, quiet mornings, lakeside adventures, sunset gatherings and everything in between. And the best part is how livable it all feels.
Vaulted ceilings and walls of windows keep everything feeling bright, open and connected to the lake, while the warm wood floors ground the space beautifully so it still feels intimate enough for dinner parties that somehow stretch three hours longer than planned. There is room here for a legitimately large dining table too, not one of those setups where somebody inevitably ends up balancing a chair leg on the floor vent. The raised peninsula bar is such a smart design feature as well. Casual conversations can happen comfortably while somebody cooks in the kitchen, the blown-glass pendant lights add a soft artistic glow overhead, and when entertaining, the entire counter doubles perfectly as a buffet setup. Best part? The elevated bar height subtly shields the kitchen workspace from the dining room sightlines, so during dinner your guests get lake views and ambiance instead of staring directly at dirty pans and post-charcuterie chaos.
The raised granite bar seating creates the perfect social divide between the kitchen and living room, keeping conversations flowing while subtly hiding the realities of cooking from anyone relaxing nearby with a glass of wine pretending they are “helping.” The maple shaker cabinetry is gorgeous, especially paired with the rich wood flooring carrying through the space, and the details here are quietly excellent. Pull-out storage, soft-close doors, recessed lighting and a full stainless appliance package including the French-door fridge with water and ice dispenser all make the kitchen feel polished and genuinely user-friendly. Then your eye lands on that backsplash climbing dramatically behind the cooktop all the way to the stainless hood, layered in shimmering glass tile that catches the light beautifully without overpowering the room. The raised granite bar seating creates a natural gathering spot right beside the kitchen, while the hallway beyond quietly connects to the primary bdrm.
The mix of black granite counters, light maple cabinetry and that gorgeous glass tile backsplash layered in soft creams, grays and warm browns creates so much richness and depth without making the kitchen feel dark or heavy. It is warm, polished and timeless in a way that still feels current years later. The layout works beautifully too, with the wall oven built directly into the cabinetry and a brand-new microwave installed above it keeping everything streamlined and easy to use. Meanwhile the gas cooktop sits below that bold stainless vent hood looking ready for somebody to dramatically sauté something while pretending they are on a cooking show.
The dramatic floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace already commands attention, but then your eye starts catching all the details surrounding it, the substantial live-edge mantel that actually has presence instead of looking like a decorative shelf from aisle seven, the illuminated built-ins, the shaker cabinetry below and the soft oatmeal carpeting grounding the entire vaulted space in warmth. Even the paint palette is working overtime here in the best possible way. The deeper warm taupe tone rising above the architectural beams adds dimension and contrast, while the softer fawn walls below keep the room feeling bright and inviting.
Main-floor living means this home can comfortably evolve with you for years to come, and the bedroom itself feels calm, spacious and wonderfully connected to the lake. The vaulted ceiling adds volume overhead while that massive three-panel picture window practically turns Long Lake into the headboard feature wall. It is the kind of view people immediately walk toward the second they enter the room. The brand-new carpeting in that rich medium brown tone keeps everything grounded and cozy, while the ceiling fan adds year-round comfort without disrupting the clean look of the space, and the electric shades aid to darken the room during any day sleeping.
At approximately 15x23, the primary suite bedroom easily accommodates large furniture pieces without ever feeling crowded, and seeing those two substantial dressers in place really helps show the scale here. The vaulted ceilings continue through the space, adding even more openness, while the glass door leading directly out to the deck creates such a beautiful connection to the water. Morning coffee with lake views without even leaving your bedroom? Yes please! The layout is smart too. The en suite bath sits privately off to the side, while the hall closet directly across from the bedroom adds even more practical storage complete with interior lighting.
Newly remodeled and beautifully thought out, the space layers practical luxury everywhere you look, starting with the heated tile floors that make cold mornings dramatically less offensive. Then there is the heated towel rack, dimmable lighting and skylight overhead bringing in soft natural light during the day while still keeping the room wonderfully private thanks to the frosted window glass. The long dual-sink vanity gives each person their own dedicated space and mirror, which frankly should be mandatory in every relationship. The charcoal cabinetry adds rich contrast against the lighter finishes and comes loaded with pull-outs and soft-close hardware so the storage actually functions beautifully. There is even a separate toilet room complete with a bidet. The walk-in closet w/built-ins create designated space for shoes, accessories, hanging clothes & all the other wardrobe pieces that usually end up stacked awkwardly on a chair somewhere after three busy days.
This oversized walk-in shower is beautifully done with a mix of cultured marble and tile finishes wrapped behind sleek glass doors that keep the entire room feeling open and polished. The scale here is fantastic too. This is not one of those showers where you spend half your morning elbowing the wall every time you turn around. With dual showerheads and all that space, it feels much more like a private spa setup than a standard residential bathroom, and the newer tankless water heater offers endless hot water to this home too!
Every good lake house needs a room that can shape-shift a little, and this den absolutely understands the assignment. The French doors with glass paneling give it a polished, intentional feel right off the foyer, while the two large windows overlooking the front drive keep the room bright without sacrificing privacy. Warm taupe carpeting and richer neutral tones make the space feel especially comfortable and tucked in. With the three-quarter bath sitting immediately beside it on the main floor, this easily becomes an ideal guest room setup for anyone wanting stair-free living. Flexible spaces like this are worth their weight in gold.
Located on the main floor beside the den, this three-quarter bath creates an incredibly flexible guest setup thanks to the den’s second hallway entrance connecting directly nearby. Overnight guests basically get their own tucked-away little suite arrangement without needing to trek through the house in pajamas carrying a toothbrush. The location near the garage entry is another underrated win too, especially for lake life where sandy feet, wet swimsuits and outdoor projects are simply part of the lifestyle. The room itself feels warm and cheerful with soft buttercream walls, tile flooring and maple cabinetry coordinating beautifully with the kitchen. The oversized shower with glass doors includes a molded seat and operable window above for airflow, while the tiled vanity and beveled round mirror keep the whole space feeling polished and welcoming.
This foyer walks the line between grand and welcoming beautifully. Natural light pours in from every direction thanks to tall accent windows flanking the front door, plus another transom window above that keeps the entire entry glowing from the second you walk in. The cherry-toned wood floors bring richness and warmth underfoot, while the soft fawn wall color paired with crisp white millwork keeps everything feeling timeless instead of trendy. And then your eye starts traveling through the architectural details. The half-wall staircase separation keeps the entry wonderfully open, while that cluster of four windows climbing above the staircase adds such a cool visual rhythm and dimension to the space.
At roughly 16x22, the lower level family room bonus space easily handles big gatherings, movie nights, rainy-day game tournaments or the inevitable crowd that migrates downstairs after dinner because somebody opened the slider and everybody followed the lake view. And yes, the views continue down here too. That massive sliding glass door keeps Long Lake front and center while giving direct access to the hot tub, dock path and waterfront beyond. The layout is incredibly smart as well. Bedrooms are split to opposite sides of the lower level for added privacy, making the downstairs setup ideal for guests, teenagers, multigenerational living or simply giving everyone a little breathing room. Recessed lighting keeps the room bright without visual clutter, soft carpeting adds comfort underfoot and tucked off to the side sits the beverage bar because clearly this house understands hospitality.
Tucked beneath the upper deck, the space offers cool shade while still soaking in those spectacular Long Lake views stretching across all 57 feet of waterfront. And then there is the hot tub, only four years old and included with the home, sitting there practically begging for late-night lakefront soaking sessions after a long day on the water. From this angle you really start appreciating how beautifully the property connects to the shoreline, with easy access down toward the dock and waterfront while still feeling private and relaxed back near the house.
One of the biggest disappointments in many waterfront homes is discovering the lower covered patio is dark, damp or visually boxed in while all the “real” outdoor living happens upstairs. Not here. This space still captures a huge uninterrupted lake view & the upper deck has been fully waterproofed, which is why you can comfortably have actual upholstered leather seating down here w/o constantly worrying about water dripping through overhead. Huge difference. The shades on both sides of the patio stay with the home, giving you added privacy, glare control and protection from afternoon sun whenever you want it, while the string accent lighting creates that warm glowy ambiance everybody secretly hopes their outdoor spaces will have. Add the hot tub, gorgeous HardiePlank siding wrapping the full exterior and those wood-wrapped windows bringing warmth to the architecture, & suddenly this lower patio starts feeling less like “bonus space” & more like a second luxury waterfront Living Room.
The hot tub sits perfectly positioned to soak in the water view while the gently sloping lawn rolls naturally down toward the beachfront below, creating such an easy, inviting connection to the lake. And nearby, the outdoor shower is ready for rinsing off sandy feet, lake water, sunscreen or post-swim chaos before heading back inside. But honestly, the best part may be that the hot tub is completely open to the sky. No roof cutting off the stars, no enclosure separating you from the weather and sounds around you. Because sitting in steaming hot water while rain falls around you or snowflakes drift down quietly over the lake? That is elite Pacific Northwest energy right there.
Six full recliners fit comfortably along one wall and the space still feels open, which tells you everything you need to know about how well this lower level handles gatherings. The beverage bar setup is fantastic too, complete with sink, beverage fridge and an impressive amount of maple cabinetry above and below for storing everything from glassware to board games to emergency lake-house snacks. Then there is the giant under-stair storage closet beside the beverage fridge, affectionately giving strong Harry Potter closet energy except significantly more useful and far less emotionally traumatic. Holiday décor, extra life jackets, Costco overflow, this thing swallows storage needs whole. And the layout continues to shine, with the hallway door on the right leading toward the opposite downstairs wing containing another bedroom, bathroom and huge storage room, giving the lower level incredible flexibility and separation for guests or multigenerational living.
This lower-level room is currently living its best life as a home gym, but the flexibility here is fantastic. At approximately 14x17, the space is large enough to easily transition back into a true bedroom while still leaving room for seating, desks or hobby setups depending on what life calls for next. And yes, even down here you still get lake views through the oversized window because apparently this house refuses to waste a single good sightline. The gym flooring and wall mirrors will stay with the home, creating all kinds of possibilities beyond fitness too. Playroom, yoga studio, music room, dance practice space, creative studio, gaming lounge, there is enough size and separation here to really make the room your own. The flooring even brings a little sound-softening benefit that works beautifully for activities where you do not necessarily want noise bouncing all over the house. Flexible spaces like this are gold because they evolve right alongside the people living in them.
This spacious lower-level room stretches approximately 13x17 and feels bright, calm and surprisingly serene thanks to the oversized window pulling in beautiful water views from Long Lake. The warm neutral wall tones and soft carpeting continue the cohesive palette carried throughout the home, giving the entire lower level the same welcoming atmosphere as the main floor instead of feeling like an afterthought. And because this bedroom sits opposite the gym/flex room on the other side of the lower level, the split layout creates fantastic privacy for guests, teenagers, extended stays or multigenerational living.
The exterior door leading directly out to the yard and outdoor shower setup makes cleanup after swimming, paddleboarding or sandy beach days ridiculously convenient. Rinse off outside first, then step right into the bathroom without trekking water through the whole house like a determined little lake raccoon. Inside, the long vanity gives you plenty of counter space to spread out comfortably. The room keeps the same warm, cohesive finishes carried throughout the home too, so even the practical spaces still feel polished and thoughtfully designed.
In the laundry room on the lower level, huge amounts of cabinetry, extended countertop workspace, open shelving, utility sink and enough storage to make even the most disorganized person suddenly believe they could become “someone who folds things immediately.” The high-efficiency washer and dryer tuck neatly beneath the long counter, giving you actual usable workspace instead of forcing you to balance laundry baskets on top of appliances, and throughout this home, the storage situation just keeps getting more impressive. Closets, cabinetry, built-ins, hidden spaces, this house was clearly designed by somebody who understood that people actually own things and occasionally want them out of sight. There is also a central vacuum with hose for the house too!
Long Lake itself runs roughly 2 miles long and includes two small islands that add so much character and visual interest to the lake instead of it feeling like one long straight channel of water. And for anyone who enjoys fishing or simply exploring different lakes, the location gets even better. Hicks Lake is only a couple minutes away, and Pattison Lake is nearby as well, giving outdoor enthusiasts multiple easy-access recreation options close to home. Whether you are after largemouth bass, rainbow trout, perch or even kokanee during the right seasons, this area gives anglers plenty to get excited about.
This aerial looks toward the quieter end of Long Lake where you’ll find the Long Lake Natural Area, a beautiful natural section of the lake that many local anglers swear offers some of the best fishing around. The more protected waters and natural shoreline habitat in this area help create excellent conditions for fish activity, making it a favorite destination for early morning casts and peaceful afternoons on the water. From this perspective, you also get a great sense of how the home enjoys access to all the fun recreational energy of the lake while still being connected to these calmer, nature-focused stretches nearby.
Fantastic nearly 3,000 sf layout and this location really nails the balance between “lake retreat” and “still connected to civilization.” From the street side aerial, you can see how peaceful and residential the setting feels, yet you are only moments away from easy access to Marvin Road, which quickly connects you to the shopping, dining and service hub around Hawks Prairie. Costco Wholesale, restaurants, grocery stores, coffee shops, medical services and freeway access are all conveniently nearby, making daily life refreshingly easy for a waterfront property, and for military commuters or anyone connected to the base, Joint Base Lewis-McChord is less than 20 minutes away!
