The BEST lot of the bunch!

Right in the heart of Covington, home-sweet-home awaits! Covington is in the Kent School District, which rates higher than 91.2% of all school districts in Washington state! Schools are close by and convenient, and Kentwood High School is just a few blocks away. The Covington Square Shopping Center and all of its surrounding conveniences are literally only a 4-minute drive away as well. Go grocery shopping at Safeway, Fred Meyer, or Costco; pick up necessities at Walmart or Walgreens; grab a quick bite to eat at Applebee’s, Puerto Vallarta, Trapper’s Sushi, Starbucks, The Rock Wood-Fired Pizza, Legendary Doughnuts, and more. LA Fitness, the post office, MultiCare, and much more are all right there as well.

As far as appreciation is concerned, this home is in a blue chip neighborhood! Home prices in Covington over the past 12 months are up 11%. In the last 2 years prices are up 24%, and in the last 5 years prices are up 61%. Average gross rental yield in Covington is 5.2%, which is excellent!

Highway 18 is a short 4-minute drive from home, and Highway 167 is 15 minutes away. If you work in Seattle, you can drive into Kent, park at the Kent Station, and hop on the Sounder Train into the city. If you work on the Eastside, you can head north and get to Factoria in 28 minutes and Bellevue in just a few minutes more.

This particular home is definitely the most private in the entire development. The lot only shares one property line, and on the other side there’s a cute little park with a trail, behind is a lush greenbelt with picturesque views of Soos Creek running through the gorgeous greenery. Plus, this beauty is high on the hill, giving it a tranquil view over the greenbelt! We also have A/C here for those hot summer days! This is all great to keep in mind when it comes time to resell in the future—it’ll help to have the most desired home in the neighborhood! This home is just that!
