Rare North Tacoma view lot with utilities and alley access ready for your dream home. Elevated above Waterview/Ruston Way with sparkling views of Puget Sound and the peninsula, this 4,800± sq ft lot offers street frontage in front and a paved alley behind—ideal for a detached garage or DADU (buyer to verify). Water, sewer, and storm connections are included in the sale; power is nearby at the pole for straightforward hookup. Zoning allows an ADU/DADU; recent nearby new builds on smaller, non-view lots have sold well into the $1.3M+ range, giving you a strong equity story from day one. Minutes to Point Defiance Park, Point Ruston, the waterfront paths, Proctor shops, dining, and services—yet tucked on a quiet residential street. Bring your builder and start designing the home you’ve been looking for but can’t find already built.
