Architectural Masterpiece in Coveted Allyn, WA
Designed and Built by New Energy Works; Portland, OR
On one of the Puget Sound’s most coveted stretches—where land meets water without interruption and the horizon feels almost within reach—an estate of extraordinary scale and presence reveals itself. Encompassing 2.5 gated acres and 208 feet of pristine, level, no-bank shoreline, this is a rare offering where privacy, land, and waterfront converge in a way seldom seen, and even more rarely available.
Masterfully crafted, this custom timber-frame residence is both a statement of enduring quality and a celebration of its surroundings. Here, architecture yields to nature—walls of glass framing sweeping, cinematic views of the Sound, where light dances across the water from first light to the final glow of dusk. Every space is designed to draw the outside in, creating a constant, effortless connection to the shoreline just steps away.
The interiors unfold with a quiet grandeur—expansive living and dining spaces that invite both intimate moments and elevated gatherings, anchored by a beautifully appointed chef’s kitchen. Outdoor living is equally considered, with broad decks and a full outdoor kitchen extending the experience into the open air. A private primary suite offers a serene retreat, while a dedicated office and versatile flex spaces adapt seamlessly to the rhythm of modern life.
The walk-out lower level introduces an entirely new dimension of leisure and hospitality—four additional bedrooms, multiple baths, and a thoughtfully curated suite of amenities including an elegant entertaining lounge, minibar, golf simulator, custom shuffleboard, and a temperature-controlled wine room and cellar for the discerning collector.
Beyond the home itself, the estate continues to impress. A private boat launch invites a true waterfront lifestyle—early mornings on the paddleboard, afternoons cruising the Sound, and evenings spent watching the sky melt into the water’s edge. Two oversized two-car garages provide exceptional utility, while the professionally landscaped grounds and expansive level lawn offer both a refined setting for entertaining and a canvas for recreation.
Behind the gates, a sense of calm and seclusion prevails—an increasingly rare luxury—while just beyond, the natural beauty of the Sound unfolds in full. Orcas, seals, and dolphins make their occasional appearance, reminding you that this is not simply a view, but a living, breathing environment.
This is more than a home—it is a generational estate, a private sanctuary, and an irreplaceable opportunity to experience the Puget Sound at its most profound.
