Seven secluded acres in Artondale, and a house finished new to catch the last of the light.

Late in the day the sun drops through the evergreens and lays long gold stripes across the lawn, all seven acres of it. New construction finished in 2026, 2,904 square feet on 7.11 secluded acres in Artondale, a few minutes west of Gig Harbor. Modern architecture in dark siding and warm wood under a metal roof, built with structural insulated panels (SIPs) for the kind of quiet and efficiency you feel in January.

Inside, vaulted ceilings ride on exposed beams, skylights drop light onto them, and modern luxury finishes carry it across the room, quartz counters, a walk-in pantry, an electric fireplace for the gray months. The dining room was made for long dinners. Single level living where it counts, the primary on main with its own bath and a walk-in closet. Downstairs the fully finished basement opens up again, two more bedrooms, a second full bath, a gathering room with its own fireplace, a bonus room, and a wet bar for the nights that run late. Three bedrooms, two and a half baths, all appliances included.

Outside, a deck built for the long evening, an outdoor sauna, a walking trail winding back into the trees, a territorial view in every direction, garden space, RV parking, electric car charging, and a 672 square foot dettached garage. No HOA, no dues. Heat pump, central air conditioning, fire sprinkler system, private well and septic system, all of it brand new. Walk the trail once at this hour, when the light is going long and the sauna is warm. Then come inside.

The Community

Artondale & Gig Harbor

Artondale is the quiet western edge of the Gig Harbor peninsula — Pierce County acreage under second-growth evergreen, where the parcels get larger and the road noise disappears. 78th Ave NW comes off Artondale Dr NW, a few minutes west of downtown Gig Harbor and its working waterfront.

The peninsula reaches Tacoma over the Narrows Bridge on WA-16, and Kopachuck State Park sits north of here on Henderson Bay. Out this far it is wells, septic and no HOA — seven acres of your own, with the trail starting where the lawn ends.

  • 7.11 secluded acres · territorial view in every direction
  • Voyager Elementary · Kopachuck Middle · Gig Harbor High
  • Peninsula School District · Peninsula Light power
  • No HOA, no dues · private well & septic
  • Minutes to downtown Gig Harbor · WA-16 to the Narrows Bridge
