Property Description

Close in 1 Acre Oasis Bordered by Little Soos Creek -- Your private PNW retreat in the heart of Covington! This special property offers natural beauty in a serene setting with towering Doug Fir, Cedar, Hemlock & native plants creating a peaceful, forested vibe. Little Soos Creek borders the property, attracting deer, otters, ducks, herons — and even salmon in peak season! Enjoy a greenhouse, garden & the soothing sounds of the creek. The quality of a classic 70s home with Redwood siding and hardwood floors throughout the main level was remodeled in 2023 and includes updated kitchen & baths, all-new interior paint, new carpet & LVP flooring (downstairs)! The lower level is a fully equipped apartment — ideal as an ADU or for multigenerational living! (Also great for daycare, short- or long-term rental or business opportunity –- the options are endless!) But that’s not all! Included in this gorgeous package is covered RV parking with hookups! OR use as a 4-car parking area, with plenty of room for your recreational vehicles and toys! Private, yet minutes from Highway 18 and all freeways for excellent commuting options, schools, shopping, services, Costco, Starbucks and yet — it feels like a world away! Also, easy walking distance to middle school, high school, Foss Grocery (think pizza slices, pop and ice cream) as well as Bruchelle’s Bagel Bistro (which serves up a LOT more than bagels!) -- All about a 10-minute walk!
