Welcome to 5.16 private acres of pure NW magic, where peaceful mornings unfold around nature that become part of your everyday life. A well-lit, automated gated entrance, off a paved private street, leads past an open field & a detached 2-car garage/shop with its own electric meter & 50-amp EV/RV outlet - ideal for a home business, storage, or potential ADU, plus an acre of parking. Drive through a grove of evergreens, arriving at another detached 2-car garage & the 2,944 SF, 4 bed, 3 bath home. The main level welcomes you with a cozy living room w/wood burning stove. The spacious kitchen offers an abundance of cabinetry & counter space, with a composite deck overlooking the private backyard, firepit, and enchanting second-growth forest. Main floor features 2 bedrooms and 2 full baths including the primary suite with dual closets. Thoughtful features include AC, skylights & beautiful vertical-grain Douglas fir trim. Exceptionally well-mainted and move-in ready! The walk-out lower level has a large great room, 2 additional bedrooms, full bath, & abundant storage and laundry space. Outside, the partially fenced forest acreage is fully marked & provides trails throughout! Gather around the firepit, tend to the fenced garden, enjoy the expansive level lawn or take advantage of the two 30' covered RV parking spaces. Gas is availble in the street! Located in Tahoma School District with easy commute to Bellevue and Eastgate, this is a rare North Maple Valley find.
