$85,000,000 | Built 1995 | 17,599 Sq. Ft. | 5 Beds | 10 Baths | 4.3 Acres
Hunts Point, Washington, United States
This grand stone and glass manor, inspired by English architecture, stands majestically on the shores of Lake Washington, presenting a striking contrast to its Pacific Northwest surroundings. Previously owned by Kenny G, the celebrated Grammy-winning jazz saxophonist who grew up in Seattle, this expansive 17,599 square foot home is now the centerpiece of headlines as it’s the priciest property listed to date in the Northwest MLS. According to the Puget Sound Business Journal, the 4.3-acre estate is currently owned by Bruce and Jolene McCaw, who acquired it from Bruce’s brother, Craig, who is the founder of McCaw Cellular, 14 years ago. This mansion, designed by renowned architect Richard Landry and completed in 1995, boasts a stunning formal entrance, a soaring two-story living room with wide windows overlooking the water, a library with intricate wood paneling, and cozy fireplaces in nearly every room, including the gourmet kitchen and master suite! Architectural Digest even featured this estate in a 1997 issue, where Kenny G expressed, “We aimed for a cozy home, yet wanted it to reflect a true sense of style.” This residence is distinct in the Pacific Northwest due to its unique architectural style not often found in the region.
