The Yakima Ridge Residence seamlessly marries modern architecture with the breathtaking natural beauty of the Yakima Valley. This contemporary family estate spans across an expansive site, offering panoramic views of the cityscape below and the majestic silhouette of Mt. Adams in the west. The architectural vision behind this home transcends conventional boundaries, creating a dynamic interplay between its three distinct wings and the surrounding landscape.
At the heart of this architectural masterpiece is the harmonious union of three separate wings that gracefully weave in and out of the site’s topography. The West Wing embraces the privacy and tranquility of the homeowners, housing a luxurious Master Suite, an inviting Exercise Room, and a sophisticated Office. The Center Wing, the focal point of the residence, welcomes guests with its grand Entryway, leading to a vast Great Room that stretches upward to an open Loft. This central hub also boasts an expansive Kitchen and Breakfast Nook, ideal for entertaining, as well as an elegant formal Dining Room. The East Wing offers two Bedroom Suites and a playful Playroom, ensuring ample space for family life.
The Yakima Ridge Residence’s architectural elements evoke a sense of perpetual movement and evolving compositions. Shifting stone walls create an ever-changing canvas, while expansive glass walls seamlessly blur the boundaries between indoors and outdoors. Low-sloping roof planes reach out in various directions, bestowing the home with a sense of dynamic fluidity. Moreover, the inclusion of a separate Cabana, serving as both a Guest Suite and a Pool House, enhances the sense of opulence, overlooking a magnificent infinity edge pool and spa. This residence is a testament to the harmonious coexistence of modern design and the splendor of its natural surroundings.
