Welcome to your new home in Yelm! Whether dreaming of a self-sufficient homestead, private equestrian estate, or spacious retreat, this 2,221 sq. ft. custom rambler (built 2015) on 5.15 flat, fenced, & gated acres offers limitless possibilities. The open-concept layout centers around a gourmet kitchen w/quartz tops, soft-close cabinets, island, & stainless steel appliances. The home features 4 spacious bedrooms, including a 4th bedroom that doubles as a dedicated office, a guest 1/2 bath & full bath. The primary suite has vaulted ceilings, 5-piece bath, large WIC, & patio access. Thoughtfully developed for any lifestyle, the grounds border a peaceful canal & feature a greenhouse, chicken coop, & dozens of flowering trees, offering a "turn-key" start for hobbyists or a lush, park-like setting for those who just want room to breathe without the restrictions of an HOA or CCRs. A heat pump system provides year-round climate control for the home. A private artesian well serves the property, providing great tasting water. Additionally, the oversized attached garage and detached 24x16 shop offer ample space for tools, toys, or projects. Spend your evenings entertaining on the large back deck or gathered around the firepit, enjoying a quiet rural atmosphere that remains just minutes from local parks, Yelm’s town center, & an easy commute to JBLM. A VA assumable loan option is available for qualified buyers, providing a significant advantage in today's market.
