Parks, pools and trails await in the planned community of Klahanie

Klahanie, one of the first planned communities in the Pacific Northwest, sits on a forested plateau. The word "Klahanie" is a Chinook Jargon term from the pidgin trade language, meaning "the outdoors" or "outside." "Klahanie features 450 acres of space and 7.5 miles of trails through the community," says Chris Siler, director of operations and community manager for the Klahanie HOA. "We have a ton of amenities, including two full-sized pools open year long, three big, lit sports courts and 8 parks and recreation areas." Klahanie is less than 20 miles from Seattle and relatively close to major corporation headquarters like Boeing, SpaceX, Microsoft and Costco, providing decent commuting times for working residents.

Klahanie homes can be found along some beautifully maintained, winding roads.

Klahanie is made up of several communities, surrounded by evergreens

For nearly 40 years, people have called Klahanie home, living in either single-family homes, multi-family residences or apartment units. "Quite a few residents have been here since the 1980s. We are a very established community," Siler says. "Our HOA dues are extremely low compared to the whole Pacific Northwest." Covering nearly 900 acres, the planned community is home to many enclaves within its boundaries, including The Willows and Heatherwood. Because construction of Klahanie took about a decade in various stages and by several home builders, home styles, designs and sizes run the gamut. Driving through Klahanie, the steep roads are cloaked with tall evergreen trees leading to various neighborhood streets. Many homes sit on lush, manicured lawns featuring large front-facing windows and have two-car garages. Prices range from $500,000 for a two-bedroom, two-bathroom condo to nearly $2 million for a spacious colonial home on an oversized lot with four bedrooms and three bathrooms.

Klahanie is a master-planned community with over 3,000 homes east of Seattle.
