Just 2.5 miles from the McCleary freeway exit, this 2,195-square-foot, west-facing residence sits on 2.2 level acres—nearly 96,000 square feet of open, usable land—with a pastoral view that never tries too hard, yet never disappoints. It is the kind of setting people move for, then wonder why they waited. Inside, the plan is both sensible and generous. A formal living room, anchored by a fireplace and a wide picture window, opens to a dining room designed to frame the landscape. The kitchen is thoughtfully designed with ample cabinetry, a peninsula with eating bar, and a casual dining area with a row of windows that welcomes in natural light. There are four bedrooms and 2.25 baths, including a primary suite with dual closets and its own private bath. A large family room with a wood-burning stove insert offers a second place to gather—or retreat—with easy access to the carport and backyard. Comfort is handled quietly, with a heat pump for efficient heating and cooling and ceiling fans. Outside, the property becomes even more compelling. A detached garage with shop, carport, and covered equipment parking provide flexibility for hobbies, storage, or work. A dog run and partially fenced yard make daily living easy, while a seasonal creek borders the north side of the property, adding a natural sense of place. All of this, with an easy 20-minute commute to Olympia’s Westside, makes the setting as practical as it is peaceful.
