Tapps Island Waterfront Real Estate

Tapps Island is a premier community that lies in Lake Tapps reservoir in Pierce County directly east of Tacoma.

Owning Tapps Island waterfront property means enjoying spectacular lake vistas from just about every angle and the opportunity for instant access to a variety of activities on the water, including boating and fishing for carp, perch and smallmouth bass.

Tapps Island Waterfront Real Estate

The water isn’t the only thing to look forward to if you purchase Tapps Island waterfront real estate. The island hosts a nine-hole golf course where golfers are rewarded with incredible views of the lake and dramatic Mount Rainier as well as the beautiful homes along the shore. While being at home offers the chance to relax and enjoy the tranquility of island living, residents aren’t far from the big city amenities Tacoma offers, include a wide range of shopping, dining and cultural attractions, yet property here tends to be less expensive compared to other waterfront communities in the region.

Prospective Tapps Island waterfront real estate buyers will find that most homes here were built in the late 1970s and early ‘80s. Expect to find waterfront homes with lots of granite, tile, hardwood floors and an abundance of windows for taking in those lake and mountain views. While there are occasionally dated bank owned foreclosures here, most properties here have recent upgrades with lots of upscale touches.

Big bargains have been enjoyed on Tapps Island like waterfront homes on over 100 feet of no bank waterfront with breathtaking views of Mount Rainier and the golf course that include an outdoor fire pit on an extended patio, ideal for entertaining on those wonderful summer nights, or gathering around to gaze up at the stars on a chilly evening. Some include hot tubs for relaxing and soothing those muscles after a day out on the lake.
