Spotlight on Our Recent Build in Seattle a Modern Craftsman Home

We are proud to showcase our newest project in Seattle’s thriving Bellevue neighborhood. This modern craftsman home reflects Olin Homes’ commitment to timeless craftsmanship, sustainability, and family‑friendly living.

Project Overview

Located on a quiet cul‑de‑sac, the residence sits on a 0.35‑acre lot and offers 2,400 sq ft of living space. The home features:

  • Three bedrooms, two full baths, and a bonus loft.
  • Open floor plan with a vaulted great‑room ceiling.
  • Eco‑friendly materials such as reclaimed cedar siding and low‑VOC paints.
  • Solar panels that generate up to 5 kW of electricity.

Design Highlights

Exterior: A blend of board‑and‑batten cedar, stone accents, and a dark‑green shingle roof creates a silhouette that respects the surrounding mature evergreens.

Interior: The entry foyer welcomes you with a custom wood staircase and decorative iron railings. The living area features a stone fireplace, floor‑to‑ceiling windows, and a sliding glass door that opens onto a stone‑paved patio.

Smart Home Integration

The home includes a Nest thermostat, Alexa‑compatible lighting controls, and a security system with doorbell camera. These technologies provide convenience while maintaining the home’s natural aesthetic.

Energy and Sustainability

Beyond solar, the house incorporates high‑performance insulation, Energy Star‑rated appliances, and a rainwater harvesting system for irrigation. The combined strategies result in a 25 % reduction in utility costs compared to a typical new build.

Owner Feedback

“Living in a home that feels both modern and rooted in Northwest tradition is a daily joy,” says the homeowners. “The attention to detail—from the handcrafted woodwork to the seamless indoor‑outdoor flow—makes this house truly ours.”
