EPLE | The Founding Residence of HJEMSTED. Occupying the largest homesite within this limited collection of four Scandinavian residences, Eple is set above Normandy Park, a quiet waterfront enclave on Puget Sound 20 minutes from downtown Seattle, where forested streets, private beaches, and a slower pace define everyday living. Inside, 3,001 square feet unfold across four bedrooms and 3.5 baths, including a private main-level guest ensuite and a framed elevator shaft thoughtfully designed for future installation. Upstairs, the primary suite spans the home's western edge, where vaulted ceilings, a spa bath with heated floors, a walk-in closet, and a private balcony embrace sweeping views toward Puget Sound. Living spaces and the wellness studio capture elevated views of Vashon Island and the Cascade Mountains. Outside, curated orchard plantings-including heritage apple varieties and espalier European pear-honor the land's history and the home's name, Eple, Norwegian for apple. A cedar pergola draped in Ruby Seedless grape vines welcomes guests to the entry terrace, while stone steps ascend to a secluded fire pit terrace designed for watching sunsets over the Sound. Built by Terrain Signature Properties, the residence reflects the quiet confidence of Scandinavian architecture-natural materials, purposeful light, and nothing unnecessary. As the founding residence of HJEMSTED, it establishes the architectural vision for the collection from its most expansive homesite.
