Enjoy your own slice of waterfront paradise on this 0.25-acre recreational lot tucked along the serene Whiteman’s Cove Lagoon in Longbranch, Pierce County now reconnected to Case Inlet and Puget Sound thanks to a recent restoration project! This is a rare opportunity for a camping or glamping getaway right at the water’s edge. Bring your camper, composting toilet, and solar setup for off-grid weekends under the stars, then launch your kayak at high tide to explore the natural beauty all around you, from quiet coves to passing wildlife. Survey markers on the neighboring parcel help identify the west boundary line, and that neighbor has already had a survey completed, giving a helpful reference point. HOA membership status is unknown and should be confirmed by the buyer. Please note: this lot is approved for recreational use only a septic system cannot be installed here, so it is best suited for camping, glamping, or an off-grid retreat rather than a permanent residence. For the right buyer, that is exactly the appeal: a low-maintenance, low-cost escape to reconnect with nature, watch the tides shift, and unplug from everyday life. Whether you are after a weekend base camp or a quiet place to recharge, this lagoon-fronted lot offers a rare combination of privacy, water access, and simplicity in one of South Puget Sound’s most scenic corners. Buyer to verify boundaries, utilities, HOA status, and all restrictions to their satisfaction.

HOPE LANDING - Once a landing for letters, Now a landing for legacy. Spanning more than 19 acres and 130 ft. of low bank waterfront, an extraordinary property offered only one other time since 1889. Sellers meticulously designed all plans and positioning to build out this dream. Set high above the water to command uninterrupted views of Puget Sound and the Narrows Bridge is a ready to build 6,200 sq. ft. primary residence that is a study in quiet confidence — architecture that steps back so the horizon can step forward. A luxury pool and pool house extend the living space outward, blurring the line between interior comfort and island air. A 2,500-sq. ft. detached garage, oversized pass-through doors, soaring ceilings — stands ready for a collection worthy of the setting. This is not storage. It is a gallery for the machines you love. The ORIGINAL POST OFFICE- At the heart of the property sits a piece of American history: from 1915-1932 the island's Post Office, waiting to be reimagined. Boathouse. Salon. Private retreat. Its next purpose is unwritten — reserved for an owner who understands that the rarest luxury is a story no one else can tell. CEDRONA COVE sits below it all is low-bank access opening onto the warm, protected waters of Cedrona Cove — generations of summer afternoons, only beginning to write the next ones, with future dock/pier exploration options. Hope Landing was never simply land. It is 19+acres of inheritance, waiting for the next owner to carry forward.

The pump house and 2 car detached garage were also just rebuilt, and the garage features 500+ sq ft of unfinished space above ready for your custom vision. Today there are highways to get you there in a hop, skip, jump (90 minutes from Seattle or Bellevue), but the moment you arrive, the peaceful rhythm of the tides and the sense of serenity will transport you to an era gone by.
