Beautiful 18.86-acre timbered parcel offering privacy, natural beauty, and outstanding potential just 15 minutes from Olympia and Tumwater! Conveniently located near major arterials yet tucked away on a quiet dead-end county road, this property is surrounded by large acreage tracts of 10 acres or more, creating a peaceful rural setting with abundant wildlife and solitude. The relatively flat land features mature harvestable timber, a seasonal stream, and power available at the road. Some preliminary work has already been completed toward residential development, making this a fantastic opportunity to create your custom estate, private compound, or investment property. Zoning allows for 1 dwelling per 5 acres, and Washington’s new ADU laws may provide additional possibilities for expanded use. Potential for a large lot subdivision may also exist. Well required. Fronts Polehn Road. Adjacent shy 20-acre parcel to the south sold last year. A rare chance to own a versatile and scenic blank canvas in a highly desirable location. Shown by appointment only—call your agent today to schedule a tour!
