Briggs Village - Olympia's Urban Village

The location of the Briggs Village master planned community is a prime spot close to all the conveniences. Residents can walk or bike to Pioneer Park and enjoy inner tubing on the Deschutes river, or walk their dog at Watershed Park. Children can walk to the various schools' sports fields and playgrounds or take a swim in Ward Lake across the street. The Briggs YMCA, attached to the community, offers two swimming pools, a weight room and youth activity center. As if two supermarkets just a few miles down either side of Yelm Highway weren't enough, Briggs Village will have its own new Thriftway supermarket built soon.

Located on over 130 acres, Briggs Village will consist of single family homes, condominiums, town homes, duplexes and a residence for seniors. The village will have a town square and a commercial and retail district, complete with shops and cafes. It will offer plenty of open spaces, walking trails and an arboretum. Upon completion, the community will be comprised of single family homes, town homes, condominiums, lofts, duplexes and senior living.

Several of the single family residences have been built and most of the streets have been put in. Due to a recent foreclosure of one of the local builders, the bank is now selling these fully developed building lots to individual buyers at prices starting around $69,000.

Olympia does not have an abundance of developed vacant land lots, so these parcels are a great opportunity to live close to town, good schools and all the amenities.

I'm excited about the Urban Village concept and look forward to watching it develop.
