6 bed, 2 bath, 5000 square feet on 2.8 acres.

A rare opportunity to own a Kirtland Cutter estate in the beautiful arts community of Metaline Falls! This one of a kind ”Rock House” designed by one of the premier architects of the late 19th and early 20th centuries features all the spectacular details characteristic of his design. This stunning 5 bedroom home boasts 270ft of frontage on Pend Oreille River and includes a carriage house beautifully complimenting the home in its architectural design. Cutter was Spokane’s premier architect in the early 1900’s. To Spokane he contributed the Davenport Hotel and a handful of private estates for Spokane’s elite; in Seattle several luxury estates and country clubs to include the original wing of the Rainier Club. This is the chance of a lifetime!
