Jessica Nelson Design has renovated her personal family residence, a gorgeous 1920s Tudor home in Laurelhurst, a Seattle neighborhood located on the shores of Lake Washington and Union Bay. Every inch of this 3,000-square-foot dwelling has been meticulously curated to create inviting living spaces that are idyllic for family living and entertaining. Step inside this radiant home to find four distinct levels, each with its own character and charm.
On the main level, you will find a stylish living room, chef’s kitchen, formal dining room, powder bath, wet bar for entertaining, and an outdoor deck with a built-in kitchen and alfresco dining area surrounded by gardens. The bedrooms are on the upper level, while the attic level features built-in bunk beds and plenty of space for lounging. The laundry/mudroom area is on the lower level, which is both functional and beautiful. Continue below for a tour of this stunner…
