The Methow Valley celebrates outdoor living. Whether hiking Easy Pass, skiing Tour of the Methow, running over the Suspension Bridge, fishing in Pearrygin Lake, sledding Goat Creek Road, or watching deer eat garden plants, people in the Valley love the outdoors. This year’s Methow Valley Home Tour will reflect that joy.

The Winthrop house featured above, designed and owned by Tom Lencheck, AIA, PBW Architects, is a stunning example of Methow homes that are embracing the outdoors.  The recent remodel added a screened outdoor bedroom and extended the outdoor living and dining areas. This home, along with seven others on the Home Tour, features outdoor living spaces, gardens, connections to trails, and breathtaking views.
