Set on approximately 1.34 acres, this special property offers privacy, space, & a setting that feels removed from the rush of daily life while remaining just minutes from I-5 and Highway 167. Mature trees along the front and side of the property create a natural buffer, giving the home a peaceful, tucked-away feel with room to grow, explore, and create. The 1,311-square-foot home features two bedrooms and a 3/4 bath, with a remodeled kitchen & bathroom that balance modern updates with the home's early-1900s character. The kitchen includes new stainless steel appliances, making it both functional & inviting. From the home, back deck, & backyard, enjoy scenic views of Mount Rainier that add a quiet sense of place to everyday living. Comfort & efficiency are thoughtfully addressed with a tankless water heater, propane heat, and supplemental electric heat. A true highlight is the detached three-car garage, offering far more than parking. It features updated electrical, its own water heater, hot & cold water, a refrigerator, ample storage, and a large loft area above, ideal for hobbies, a workshop, or creative use. An attached greenhouse expands the possibilities even further, whether you enjoy gardening, projects, or simply having a flexible bonus space. Outdoors, the property includes a chicken coop and an additional storage shed, reinforcing the versatility of this 1.34-acre setting. The home is connected to Summit Water, a rare and valuable feature in this area.
