The Story

The buyer brief that produced the combination.

First Light delivered in 2024 as Seattle's tallest residential condo at 48 stories. The floor-plate mix is predominantly one- and two-bedroom residences. True penthouse-scale inventory at a trophy price point is narrow. My clients wanted what the stock unit plans did not offer: a large, dual-aspect home with separation between primary and guest space, and views that captured both the Puget Sound and the Cascade skyline.

The answer was two adjacent units, combined. Not a renovation afterthought, a strategic purchase. I identified the pairing, coordinated with First Light's design team and the HOA on the scope of combination work, and structured a transaction that delivered the combined residence in a single close.

The final home: 1,488 square feet, 2 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, floor-to-ceiling glass on multiple exposures, Space Needle to the north and Puget Sound to the west. Sold for $2,981,776 in August 2025.

What This Sale Says

Combination is a strategy, not a renovation story.

Brief before building

The winning move was identifying that the stock floor plans did not match the brief and that pairing two adjacent units would. That is an advisory call, not a listing call.

Coordination matters

First Light is a 2024-delivery building with a responsive HOA and design team. Getting the combination scope approved and scheduled alongside the transaction required active project management, not just buyer representation.

Trophy scale, right building

At 48 stories, First Light holds the tallest residential crown in Seattle. A combined-unit home here is as close to bespoke penthouse inventory as the new-construction market delivers today.
