Discover an exceptional equestrian estate in the Eatonville countryside, offering 20 level acres, striking Mt. Rainier views, and rare development potential. The gated property includes a distinctive 2-bedroom, 2-bath barndominium-style home with 2,370 sqft, vaulted ceilings, gas appliances, mini-split heating and cooling, and a permanent propane generator. Designed for serious horse care, the property features a 6-stall barn with room for a seventh stall, automatic water troughs, five outdoor sand runs, eight pastures, large paddocks, a round pen, and a professional sand arena with drainage and sprinklers. A heated wash station, storage tent, dog run, fully fenced grounds, productive hay fields, and a natural spring-fed pond add function and character. Four RV electrical hookups provide even more flexibility. The possibilities extend well beyond the existing improvements. The current residence may have potential for future ADU use if a new primary home is built, subject to Pierce County approval. A permit for a larger main residence was previously approved but has expired, giving the next owner a valuable starting point for renewed planning. Enjoy the property now as an established equestrian retreat while exploring the potential to create a larger estate compound. Buyer to verify ADU eligibility, land use, permit status, septic, utilities, and all development feasibility.
