1500 Lakeview Boulevard E Seattle, WA 98102

The Egan House is nestled in the greenbelt below St Mark's Cathedral.

Reichert was known for this black, white, and red palette, which is repeated in his personal residence on Queen Anne.

Historic Seattle replaced the roof in 2003, but they were careful to preserve the original striped design.

The shape of the house creates a stair step layout, with the levels of the home climbing the hillside.

Egan House is on a land easement with City of Seattle, with options to extend through 2153.

The triangle shaped deck was added in the 1980's, in keeping with the style of the house.

Living area is on the third floor, with super high ceilings.

A wood stove provides supplementary heat for the home.

The house is arranged on three levels, connected via beautifully preserved staircases.

The kitchen and dining area are on the second level.

Windows were placed for specific functions.

Original cabinetry in kitchen includes many perfectly preserved, if no longer functioning, built-in bells and whistles.

Skylights ensure that the whole house is bright and light, despite being surrounded by woods.

In the lower left you can see what was originally the washer/dryer unit (now just a cabinet).

Floating staircase with minimalist railing.

Third floor connects to the triangle deck for outdoor entertaining.

Outdoor entertaining is a dream in this lush, private greenbelt.

The primary bedroom features a walk-in closet, additional closets, and an ensuite bathroom.

The primary suite is on the second level.

Primary bathroom continues the black and white palette.

Lower bedroom with en-suite 3/4 bathroom.

Bathroom on lower level is a study in spatial efficiency.

Washer/dryer and extra refrigerator, plus storage on lower level.

More exterior and enclosed storage under the house.

Designed by iconic architect Robert Reichert, the Egan House is both literally and figuratively a landmark. This bold, sculptural home, dramatically sited in St. Mark’s greenbelt, is both emblematic of and in contrast with midcentury modern architecture. Reichert prioritized the “economy and material innovation” of the time, but he also described his designs as “romantic rather than functional…sculptural in form and traditional in mannerism.” The Egan House, with its stark geometric shapes and sleek black & white color scheme unapologetically emphasizes its stand-out qualities. While some details (floating staircase, open volumes,…) were aligned with a formal Modernist approach, others were imbued with romance and an art-first attitude.
