Development opportunity in the heart of Rainier! This 2.91-acre property offers rare in-city acreage with excellent potential for future use or development. Depending on buyer plans and city approval, possibilities may include single-family, duplex, townhome, multifamily, group living, daycare, or other permitted uses. Existing cabin is of little value; the value is in the land. City water and power are already on the property. Enjoy a peaceful setting near schools, parks, and the Yelm-Tenino Trail. Seasonal purple camas flowers and yellow buttercups add beautiful natural color across the property. Conveniently located with access to Rainier amenities and a short drive to Olympia, Yelm, Tenino, and JBLM. Buyer to verify all development potential and permitted uses to their satisfaction.
