The Crown Villa of Woodland Cove

Rather than staging as a generic luxury home, we positioned this estate as an authentic Mediterranean lifestyle experience. Professional staging focused on the Great Hall's entertaining potential and the primary bedroom's resort-style living, emphasizing the waterfront access and indoor-outdoor flow that defines lakeside Mediterranean living.

The staging narrative was clear: this isn't just a house—it's a lifestyle statement. Every vignette reinforced the vision of entertaining 100+ guests, morning sunrise views over Lake Washington, and the rare combination of private water access within a gated community.

Professional drone cinematography showcased what ground-level photos couldn't: the estate's hilltop position within Woodland Cove, the community's park and gated entry, the architectural grandeur of the Mediterranean design, and the panoramic Lake Washington views with Mount Rainier in the distance.

Interior photography captured the scale and luxury finishes—from the 18-foot ceilings and travertine floors to the Roman pool and 6-car garage. Every image was strategically composed to convey both grandeur and intimacy, demonstrating how the home functions for both large-scale entertaining and comfortable daily living.

Recognizing that the ideal buyer pool resided primarily in Bellevue and Seattle's Queen Anne neighborhood, we deployed targeted digital advertising and direct outreach to high net worth individuals in these areas. The messaging emphasized Kirkland's waterfront living as an upgrade from urban condos or landlocked estates.

This wasn't broad-spectrum marketing—it was surgical precision. We identified buyers who had the financial capacity ($4M+ purchasing power), lifestyle alignment (desire for water access and entertaining space), and geographic motivation (seeking Eastside waterfront from Seattle or Bellevue).

We hosted two separate broker open houses—one targeting Kirkland agents and one for Bellevue/Seattle agents—generating over 40 agent attendees. This dual-event strategy accomplished two critical objectives: maximum agent exposure and geographic network activation.

The first event educated local Kirkland agents on the property's unique value proposition within Woodland Cove. The second brought Bellevue and Seattle agents who work with the exact buyer profile we needed: high net worth clients seeking waterfront estates with privacy and views.

The result? One attending agent was so impressed by our marketing execution that they became a client themselves—hiring us to sell their neighboring Woodland Cove property at 10945 84th Place NE, which we subsequently sold for $3,798,000.
