Welcome to Reichel Farm - a rare offering in Thurston County. This 145+ gross acre property spans several parcels and is zoned RRR 1/5 (one dwelling unit per five acres) with incredible development potential! The land features Mount Rainier views from most of the property and frontage on multiple public roads. Predominantly flat, well-drained pastureland and currently in agricultural classification for low taxes. A completed critical areas study identifies roughly 134 net acres available after wetland, stream, and prairie buffers, supporting a preliminary lot yield in the low-to-mid 20s. Five legal lots of record already exist across the six parcels, existing private well and septic infrastructure, and a neighboring large-lot plat proceeding on individual well/septic systems all provide useful precedent for underwriting. Full due diligence package - title commitment, critical areas reports, and parcel-level detail available on request. For multi-home and working farm use: The same 1-per-5-acre zoning that supports subdivision also supports multiple residences on the property without platting a single lot. The existing farmhouse and barn anchor a working farmstead, with room across the acreage for additional homesites, pasture for livestock, and space for hay or crop production. Whether the plan is a phased development or a large-scale private compound with multiple homes, this property offers the acreage, zoning, and utility infrastructure to make it possible!
