Nestled in Mercer Island's highly sought-after First Hill neighborhood, this is a rare opportunity to create your dream home on an expansive 15,000+ square foot lot. Ideally located with convenient access to I-90 for easy commuting both east and west, the property is also just moments from First Hill Park and Lid Park, offering tennis courts, playgrounds, trails, and abundant recreational amenities. The existing 1951 home has sustained fire damage and is being offered as a potential rebuild or extensive renovation opportunity. From this exceptional setting, enjoy lovely eastern views of Mercer Island Town Center, Lake Washington, and the Cascade Mountains. Whether you're envisioning a custom estate or exploring the possibilities of a major remodel, this premier location provides an outstanding canvas for your vision. Important: There is no access to the home due to safety concerns, including structural liability and risk of injury. All showings are by appointment only, and the listing agent must accompany all visitors. House is sold as is.
