Embodying the essence of seaboard charm, the Chathams shingle-style gables, gambrels, columns, turrets, balconies and verandas entice visitors to approach. Visitors are immediately drawn from the traditional foyer into the spectacular grand circular rotunda with it domed stained-glass ceiling and compass rose floor. The two-story great room beyond, with its curved bay window, anchors the expansive family living area. Formal living and dining rooms provide for grand entertaining, while the intimate library and study allow for quiet activities. Service spaces including a butlery, mud room with elevator, and back stair enhance the homes functionality. The master suite is a magnificent private retreat, while the childrens suites are highlighted by playful and unique spaces. A home theater, game room, laundry and crafts room round out the upper floor. A companion garage and guest house is also available, the Chatham Cottage. Excellence in traditional exterior design combined with outstanding modern lifestyle planning won the Chatham Best of Show honors at the 2005 Seattle Street of Dreams and a 2006 Best of American Living award.
