## Just outside Bellevue
A newly built home in Clyde Hill, Washington has come to market with $12 million asking and views of a private lake.
## Five bedrooms, 8,400 square feet
The modern residence spreads across 8,400 square feet with five bedrooms, including a primary suite built for the view.
## Designed by Metrica Architects
Metrica Architects handled the design, giving the house a clean modern shape rather than the usual Pacific Northwest lodge look.
## Indoor outdoor living
A roof deck and a full outdoor kitchen extend the living space past the walls, which matters in a house sold on its lake views.
## The tour was choreographed
Jonathan Batista, the first Black principal dancer with Pacific Northwest Ballet, leaps and pirouettes through the rooms in the listing's debut video.

## A pitch aimed at creatives
It is an odd way to show a house. That is the point, and it may pull in exactly the kind of buyer the area attracts.

> It's an unusual way to present a home, but perhaps it will attract creatives in the area.
## Key takeaway

When a listing needs to stand out, the tour itself can be the product, not just the house.
