About This Home

Classic MCM open-concept design with minimal interior walls and seamless integration of living, dining, and kitchen areas. Step back in time with this one-of-a-kind 1952 MID CENTURY MODERN CLASSIC—an enthusiast’s dream. Designed and owned by Mary L. Davis, the first woman to graduate UW’s architecture school post-WWI, this award-winning gem was featured in numerous magazines. Thoughtfully preserved, it showcases vaulted ceilings, expansive windows, and a great room where sunlight pours in and nature feels just outside. A private hot tub is tucked among terraced gardens. Located in Fircrest—where small-town charm meets timeless design. Lower level flex space works as bedroom, office, or Airbnb. A rare offering!
