Modern new construction in an extraordinary Lake Forest Park setting - estimated completion December 2026. Tucked among mature Western red cedars with McAleer Creek running through the property, this thoughtfully designed contemporary home at 19236 Lago Pl NE combines clean modern architecture, a peaceful Pacific Northwest setting, and an unusually high level of comfort and energy efficiency. Inside, bright open spaces feature wide-plank wood flooring, oversized black-framed windows, designer lighting, oak slim shaker cabinetry, stone surfaces, and a striking kitchen with a large island, extensive storage and a beautiful connection to the surrounding greenery. The home is being built well beyond the basics, with high-performance triple-pane and laminated windows, R-21 Rockwool wall insulation, Mitsubishi mini-split heating and cooling throughout, and an HRV fresh-air ventilation system. The result is a home designed for exceptional year-round comfort, quiet, indoor air quality and efficiency. Outside is what truly sets this property apart. Towering mature cedars create privacy and a sense of permanence, while McAleer Creek flows through the property, creating a setting that feels remarkably removed from the city while remaining convenient to all localities. Modern design. Exceptional building science. Mature Pacific Northwest forest. A creek of your own. This is not a typical new-construction home-it's a rare opportunity to have contemporary living immersed in nature.
