Size: 6-BR, 7-bath, 8,871 sf.
Location: 15508 SE 79th Place, Newcastle
The Skinny: Originally listed in May 2015, this was once the home of former Seattle Seahawks WR Nate Burelson. The over-sized Newcastle property has all the luxury features you'd expect (gym, elevator, theater room, and sports bar). Interesting, they'd actually come down to $2.95M on the asking price, so the fact that the eventual purchase price when back up makes us think more than one buyer noticed it at the right time.

Size: 4-BR, 3.25-bath, 4,590 sf.
Location: 1122 Federal Ave E, Capitol Hill
The Skinny: Now here's a place that was in demand. This 1909 Capitol Hill classic listed on February 2 and ended up going pending one week later $365K higher than the asking price. Your backyard looks out on Volunteer Park and inside is a renovated old home that doesn't feel "over-renovated." Simple but solid.

Location: 219 13th Ave, Kirkland
The Skinny: Another recent listing (Jan. 21) that went pending quickly (a week) over the asking price (roughly $100K). This new construction from Krueger Homes has a much more modern feel inside than it might seem from the outside, especially in the bath and kitchen. For someone looking for a custom home in a nice neighborhood with all the amenities, it's a solid choice.
