Rare Residential Building Site RUE Approved for Single-Family Home. Your opportunity to build just got a whole lot more real. Finding a vacant parcel is one thing. Finding one where the county has already approved the critical land-use exception needed to build a home is something entirely different. This approximately 0.83-acre residential parcel offers a rare opportunity to create your own home in a peaceful rural setting near the Skookumchuck River. Most importantly, Thurston County has approved a Reasonable Use Exception specifically allowing residential development on this property. The environmental work is equally encouraging. A professional critical area evaluation found no wetlands or streams on the property, while the Skookumchuck River and its associated wetlands are separated from the property by the surrounding road system. The property's location is also outside the river's required 250-foot buffer. The owner went through the county's Reasonable Use Exception process and the Hearing Examiner approved the RUE in December 2025. Buyer to verify all information, approvals, plans, permitting requirements, and development costs with Thurston County and applicable agencies. The approved RUE is subject to conditions.
