About this property
Pet/Family Friendly Getaway w/ Rainier and Marina Views Spacious Outdoor Space
Relax with the whole family at this peaceful place. Welcome to our charming farmhouse. This retreat is the perfect place for those seeking a cozy and unique getaway. It sits on a fully fenced and gated acre+ lot with extensive outdoor spaces, including a fire pit, large deck, and magnificent views of Mt. Rainier and Puget Sound. Inside, there's a fully-equipped kitchen, living room with large windows that offer breathtaking views, and a loft space, providing a truly unique vacation experience.
The Neighborhood:
1. The house is within 6 minutes short walk to Longbranch Improvement Club Marina with the most beautiful view in the south sound: where you can enjoy peaceful marina views and Mt Rainier in the distance on a clear day. It is open to public foot traffic during the day (please see the posted open hours on the marina gate).
2. The house is within 10 minutes driving distance to two beautiful state parks (Joemma Beach and Penrose, Washington State Discover Pass required, $30 annually or $10 cash day use fee) with beaches for kayaking or hiking, discovering marine life in the low tide, exploring natural beauty of the northwest. There are miles of beautiful trails to soak up the Great Pacific Northwest nature.
3. A short 13 minute drive to Key Center Supermarket where you can stock up grocery. A Subway and excellent Mexican restaurant (El Sombrero Family Mexican) are in the same shopping center.
4. A recently opened Mexican restaurant (2 Margaritas) is within 7 minutes drive which offers dine in and take out.
5. Closest major shopping center is Gig Harbor shopping mall where you can find Costco, Target, Albertsons, the Home Depot, Starbucks and various restaurants. It is 21 miles away which takes 30 to 40 minutes' drive one way.
Driving distance to the house from:
1. Gig Harbor: 23 miles (35 minutes)
2. Bremerton: 30 miles (40-50 minutes)
3. Tacoma: 35 miles (40-50 minutes)
4. Sea-Tac airport: 55 miles (1 hour to 1 hours 20 minutes)
