A Lake Washington lot that once sat inside the Russell Wilson and Ciara real estate empire is now being shopped as a future mega-mansion site, complete with a serious dock. The West Bellevue parcel off Shoreland Drive is pitched as a custom, high-end residence with its own waterfront playground, and city records show the project is already winding through permits and marketing.
As first reported by Puget Sound Business Journal, the site is being marketed as roughly a $28 million custom luxury estate, with listing imagery crediting builder Roger MacPherson. The outlet describes the offering as a pre-sale chance to build a sprawling waterfront compound rather than a simple one-and-done house.
Permits and a dock already cleared
The City of Bellevue’s weekly permit bulletin shows a Notice of Decision approving a shoreline substantial development permit for a new residential dock at 903 Shoreland Drive SE. The plan allows a dock to extend about 100 feet into Lake Washington, with boat lifts, fourteen supporting piles and a platform lift all spelled out in the paperwork. The notice lists File No. 24-123210-WG and includes a SEPA determination of non-significance plus a formal appeal window for shoreline permitting, as laid out by City of Bellevue.
Public records and listing history
Online property records show active permit filings tied to the lakefront lot, including a “New Dock” permit that was finalized in October 2024 and a shoreline exemption filed in January 2026. The permit log for 903 Shoreland Dr SE, along with the lot’s waterfront footage and sale history for adjacent parcels, is compiled on Realtor.com, which also notes recent transactions connected to the Wilson-Ciara holdings.
What the listing shows
Listing materials outline a proposed custom home of roughly 8,200 square feet, complete with an infinity-edge pool, elevator and multicar garage, and they peg the lot at about 110 feet of waterfront. The pre-sale listing names MacPherson Construction and Design as the builder and plays up the west-facing sunsets and Seattle skyline views that come with the address. The builder’s listing and full specs are posted on Making Seattle Home.
Wilson’s bigger picture
Wilson and Ciara previously owned multiple Shoreland Drive parcels. Their larger waterfront mansion nearby sold in 2024 for about $21.25 million, landing among King County’s biggest residential deals of the year. The Seattle Times reported that sale and noted the buyer was identified as a revocable trust, underscoring how quietly some of these high-dollar shoreline moves happen.
Next steps and local scrutiny
Because the shoreline decision includes a SEPA determination and clearly posted appeal deadlines, neighbors and other interested parties have a limited window to challenge the dock and related work under state and local rules. Permit records show the application was filed in October 2024 and that appeal periods were defined when the decision came out, so construction can move ahead only after those procedural clocks run out.

Market context
Waterfront dirt in West Bellevue is about as scarce as it gets, and older estates getting scraped or reworked into modern compounds has become a familiar storyline. Those projects routinely trigger detailed shoreline reviews and, at times, neighborhood pushback, even while they attract deep-pocketed buyers. Local reporting and MLS data have followed that trend in recent years, including coverage of Wilson’s prior sale along this same stretch of shoreline by The Seattle Times…
