5230 Puget Road NE Olympia, WA 98516

This shot highlights the wide drive and the home’s front approach, with barked terraces that layer in texture and structure. It’s a small detail, but it adds polish and balance to all that extra parking space out front.

This aerial makes it easy to see how the property is divided: the home sits toward the top with lawn and gardens flowing behind, then the tree line opens up to usable pastureland. It’s space that’s already functional with room to grow.

From above, you see the house topped with a metal roof, the gold standard for durability. It shrugs off storms, never needs replacing every couple of decades, and gives you actual peace of mind. Down below, the extra-wide gravel driveway proves just as reliable, with room for cars, guests, RVs, and the boat without a single shuffle game.

This view layers the property like it was designed on purpose. First comes the fenced garden area for your produce or cut flowers, then a tree line that gives you privacy and a little drama, and finally the pasture rolling out behind it all. It’s gardens up front, shade in the middle, and endless possibilities in the back.

This lot-line view shows the full property and makes it clear the defined pasture behind belongs to the next parcel, not this one. What you do get is 1.36 acres of your own, with lawn, gardens, and pasture space tucked inside your boundary.

From above, the 1.36-acre corner lot shows its range with wooded areas near the house for privacy, long open backyard space for gardens, and easy access out to Puget Road. It’s land that feels tucked away but still connected.

Nothing says welcome like a bold red front door, especially when it’s paired with clean tan siding and white trim. The barked flower beds are loaded with established plantings, which means instant curb appeal, and the walkway up to the house feels like it was designed for a grand entrance, even if you’re just carrying in groceries.

Up close, the front door shows off in red, while a sword fern adds that PNW touch without asking for extra care. The entry is low with no big steps, which means everyone can come and go easily, no drama with stairs or trips.

Tile floors in sandstone tones keep this living room durable and easy, and the size makes it functional instead of just filler. Light apricot-butter and amber walls add warmth, while the big picture window makes the room feel even larger. A cadet wall heater gives you custom heat on demand, and the front door’s arched glass detail adds some charm. The best part? The largest bedroom opens right here, so no one has to wander down a hallway to find it.

Step inside and you’re greeted by living room walls in autumn shades that balance cozy and bold, paired with a white-on-white kitchen that plays it clean. The island gives you a seat for coffee or chats with the cook, and French doors lead you into the next room with a little drama.

On this side of the living room, the star is the wood stove perched on a brick hearth that layers terracotta, cream, and deep tones. The scale of the room means you’ve got space to spread out, and you see the connections to more bedrooms beyond, which keeps the floorplan feeling open and livable.

Up close, the front entry shows off its arched glass door and large picture window, while the wall to the right keeps the kitchen fridge and storage zone tucked away. Call it the pantry side, or just a smart way to keep the workhorse part of the kitchen from stealing the spotlight.

The kitchen keeps it classic with white shaker-style cabinets, silver hardware, and a clean tile backsplash. White appliances blend in, while a corner sink sits under a garden shelf window that’s basically begging for fresh herbs. The back door carries the same arched glass detail as the front, and through the French doors you’ve got flex space that works as a third bedroom or whatever you need.

The island gets practical with a rotating corner cabinet and bar seating that faces the living room, not the stove. It makes conversation easy, whether you’re hosting or just trying to keep an eye on things. The side wall is finished in tile to handle scuffed shoes from stools, proving durability can still look polished.

Square white tile is a classic move, but here it’s done right, running floor-to-ceiling so the kitchen feels finished. The glass-topped electric stove adds to the clean lines, and you skip the natural gas debate entirely. It’s simple, safe, and polished.

This view shows how the kitchen stays bright and airy, with light bouncing off white finishes and oversized windows. The bar counter is finished with protective tile underneath, so stool scuffs never stand a chance. Across from the island, another cadet wall heater lets you dial in the temperature room by room, and blinds are already in place when you want to control the light.

The fridge nook doubles as a pantry zone, with upper and lower cabinets giving you storage you’ll actually use. The electrical panel is neatly tucked here for easy access, and since the fridge stays, you are set up to use the kitchen on day one.

At roughly 15'x15', this bedroom gives you real square footage to work with. Mirrored closet doors double as full-length fit check central or your own dance studio. The barely-there blue walls keep it light, while warm latte carpeting makes the room feel grounded.

Behind the French doors is a flexible 23-foot room with dark latte-toned carpet, apricot-butter walls, and white trim. A second exterior door with an arched accent window ties in the design. Call it a huge bedroom number three or call it a great sized family room, either way it’s the kind of bonus space that makes the floorplan work smarter, not harder.

This angle shows just how open the 15 by 15 layout really feels. There’s space here for a full bedroom set without crowding, plus extra room to carve out a reading corner or desk zone. Natural light plays off the soft tan walls, and the mirrored closet doors bounce it back to make the room feel even larger. The latte carpet keeps it grounded and comfortable, so it’s equal parts functional and inviting.

Right now, this walk-in closet offers one shelf and one row of hanging space, but that just leaves you a blank slate. Install custom storage and make it Pinterest-worthy, or pivot completely and use it as a tiny home office, book nook, or even a gaming hideout.

Tan walls give this smaller bedroom some personality, while dark latte carpet grounds it. The walk-in closet is the surprise here, turning the “smallest room” into one that actually pulls its weight. Ideal for a guest space, craft room, or a dedicated Zoom zone.

At about 14'x11', this bedroom proves it’s not the token “extra.” The scale works for a queen bed plus furniture, or skip the bed and call it your office, game room, or hobby space. Freshly painted walls keeps it clean, carpet keeps it grounded, and size keeps it useful.

This isn’t your typical cramped laundry closet. The utility room has space to move, high windows for natural light, and the washer and dryer are staying. The sellers also added a water filtration system, which is basically one less thing for you to worry about. Extra storage and mudroom potential round it out.

The backyard is level and lovely, edged with mature landscaping that frames the space without taking it over. A concrete patio gives you room to spread out seating in multiple zones, so you’re not cramming everyone around one table. Trees and shrubs add privacy, making it feel like your own green retreat.

Blooming plants frame the patio that wraps to the side of the house, giving the backyard real curb appeal where it counts. The lawn is in late-summer vacation mode, but the trees and shrubs pick up the slack, creating privacy and a tucked-away vibe.

You’ve got 1.35 acres here, with about an acre of pasture stretching below the house. Up top there’s a fenced garden area and fruit trees sprinkled around, so you can grow veggies, bake pies, or just brag that you have your own orchard.

From the landscaped edge you see the back of the house, complete with a breezeway that connects to the garden shed so tools never feel far away. The metal roof tops it all, delivering durability and peace of mind that shingles can only dream about.

The garden shed brings in natural light with a clear roof section, making it easy to use as more than just storage. Its roof stretches to the side of the house, doubling as a carport that keeps your vehicle dry and out of the weather. Practical, simple, and a nice win for everyday life.

Behind the home, the aerial captures the areas for pasture, perfect for grazing or reimagining into your own private estate setup. Whether that means animals, gardens, or a little bit of both, the land is ready.

From above, you see how the property stretches from the home’s front approach to the acre of pasture just behind the mature treed area. Puget Road lines the front, so you get convenient access without losing the country vibe that comes with this much space.

The location nails convenience, with downtown Olympia and the state offices just 15 minutes away and Seattle about an hour up the road. Hawks Prairie is even closer, packed with everything from Costco runs to Chick-fil-A cravings and all the shopping you could need. It’s the kind of spot where small-town calm meets big-city access.

Here you see the property’s rhythm: gardens up front, trees in the middle, and pasture in the back. All that space feels private, but the saltwater air tells you Henderson Inlet and Hogum Bay are close by. Johnson Point gives you the best of both, a country vibe with coastal breezes.

The aerial view puts your house in context ….surrounded by greenery, with saltwater on both sides of Johnson Point. Down the road is Zittel’s Marina, a one-stop for launching your boat, snagging moorage, or renting a pontoon when friends insist on “something fun.” It’s the lifestyle perk that makes this location a win.

The carport sits just off to the side, blending into a home that delivers easy one-story living. A wired security system is in place, ready to be reactivated, which means less hassle and more peace of mind.

Parking here is easy with an oversized gravel drive and a wide carport. Guests, roommates, RVs, boats…bring them all. This is one of those rare setups where you won’t be fighting over who gets the good spot.

1-story home right here: this is your home, wrapped in greenery and salt-kissed air on Johnson Point outside And when it comes to schools, kids are covered by North Thurston Public Schools. That means South Bay Elementary, Chinook Middle or Aspire Middle, and North Thurston High School (go “Rams” or “Orcas,” depending on the level).
