About this home
A truly extraordinary urban retreat within one of Seattle’s most iconic and architecturally significant buildings, The Sanctuary. The Church Residence is a masterclass in gothic interior design and adaptive reuse - an inspired reimagining of a historic landmark into one of the most distinctive private homes in the world. Bold, curated, and unapologetically theatrical, this South facing 3-bedroom, 4-bath residence offers an experience unlike anything else on the market. Soaring 35-foot ceilings create breathtaking volume, while original rail-mounted stained glass windows anchor the home in its storied past. Eclectic antiques, modern design elements, and bespoke finishes are layered throughout, resulting in a dramatic yet highly functional living space. Unexpected details unfold at every turn - from a hidden whiskey bar to a rich collection of custom vintage touches that make the home feel both timeless and entirely one of a kind. Rare for urban living, the property includes two secure garage parking spaces with Tesla vehicle charging, along with generous additional storage. Located in one of Seattle’s most beloved neighborhoods, this is more than a residence—it’s an opportunity to own a piece of architectural history, thoughtfully transformed into a sophisticated, livable work of art.
