Welcome to Reichel Farm - A rare working cattle operation in Thurston County: 145.06 gross acres, fully fenced, with prime pasture and strong hay potential. The property is anchored by a massive barn and outbuildings, an existing farmhouse, and a private well and septic system already in place. Predominantly flat, well-drained, and currently held under agricultural tax classification, with Mount Rainier views from most of the acreage and frontage on multiple public roads. For farmers and compound-living buyers: Zoned RRR 1/5 (one dwelling unit per five acres), the property supports multiple residences across the acreage without any subdivision required, ideal for buyers looking to move several households onto the same property. The existing farmhouse and barn provide a ready-made operational base, with room to build additional homes, expand grazing or hay ground, and keep the whole operation under one deed. Fencing, water, and septic infrastructure already support the working farm as-is.Development potential: The same acreage also carries development upside. A completed critical areas study identifies roughly 134 net acres available after wetland, stream, and prairie buffers, with a preliminary yield in the low-to-mid 20s in lots. Full due diligence materials available on request for buyers who want to evaluate that path alongside continued agricultural use.
