Top-Selling Tehaleh Offers Quick Move-In Homes

Buzzing with hikers, birders and wildlife, Tehaleh, nestled in the lush forest between Mt. Rainier and Tacoma, is giving outdoor enthusiasts a unique place to call home.

“Visitors have been very excited about the six parks, the miles of trails, and the open spaces,” said Scott Jones, Vice President and General Manager for Newland Communities. “No other community in the area provides this level of integration with the great outdoors.”

Home tours will be offered this weekend at the Puget Sound area’s top-selling community, just south of Bonney Lake. Visitors can tour 12 model homes and view 11 move-in ready homes, then explore the community’s parks and 7.5 miles of trails. Take in the stunning mountain view while enjoying handcrafted coffee from Caffé D’arte and fresh sandwiches and salads from CJ’s deli at The Post, Tehaleh’s community gathering and information center.

“Seeing deer, birds and other wildlife on a regular basis is part of this lifestyle,” said Jones. “This is one of those unique places where you wake up with Mount Rainier right in your back yard and can walk to a trail to start hiking.”

Tehaleh is designed by Newland Communities, national experts in creating communities for the way people live today. “From the start our neighborhoods are planned around the surrounding trails and parks, which gives it a consistent quality and community feel that’s not found in many other places,” said Jones. “Everything is designed to bring the beauty of the Pacific Northwest to your doorstep while maximizing convenience.”
