Property Description
Where Old Roots Meet New Beginnings - A Farmhouse Ready to Bloom Again. Tucked along a country road, this 1930 farmhouse sits on 3.5 sun-dappled acres. Once the historic Steiner Rhododendron Nursery, the property is draped in healthy mature rhododendrons that paint the landscape in season, a living legacy of what this land has always been: a place where things grow. The essentials are handled: well, septic, new roof, water heater, heaters, electrical panel, and partial siding update. Move in and finish the details to your liking, on your timeline. The floor plan shines - primary bedroom on the main with a full bath and private exterior door. Upstairs, two bedrooms, a 3/4 bath, and an attic hideaway full of potential. Positioned above the road with a sense of elevation, mature trees perfect for swings, and a forested hillside backdrop, the setting feels like a storybook. The wraparound driveway and yard need only minor love for great reward. Transform the front and back porch into a welcoming retreat. Three outbuildings, fenced areas, a modest orchard in the making, and room for animals and expanded gardens. Built for the hobby farmer, the homesteader, or anyone craving their own nature paradise amongst the trees. Minutes to many breathtaking parks for recreation such as Penrose State & Gateway Park, only five lots to South Puget Sound waters, golfing, & a reasonable commute to Gig Harbor. Highly acclaimed Peninsula School District. Come grow something here.
