A charming approach welcomes you home, but step inside and the feeling is decidedly contemporary. Set in the impressive Talus community, the open-concept main floor brings together the kitchen, dining and living areas, with a convenient powder room for guests. The living room's gas fireplace adds warmth and ambiance, while expansive windows frame a lush backdrop of trees, creating the wonderful feeling of living right up in the canopy. Step outside to the deck/patio and that same sense of privacy continues-a peaceful spot for morning coffee, evening wine or simply enjoying the greenery around you. Upstairs, the primary bedroom features its own private ensuite bath, while the second bedroom is served by another full bath, with conveniently located laundry between the two bedrooms. A generously sized tandem garage offers exceptional room for two cars, storage, bikes and all the extras. Enjoy the distinctive architecture and natural surroundings of Talus, with nearby trailheads connecting to Cougar Mountain's extensive hiking trail system, while still being just minutes from the shopping, dining and conveniences of Issaquah. A wonderful combination of contemporary living, privacy and access to the outdoors in one of Issaquah's most distinctive communities.
