36844 52ND Avenue S L

Auburn, WA98001

Whispering Woods Estates (“WWE”) is an entitlement-approved large-lot community on Auburn’s desirable West Hill in South King County, situated just north of the City of Edgewood. This thoughtfully planned eight (8) lot neighborhood spans 4.49 acres and delivers privacy, certainty, and long-term value. WWE offers convenient commuter access to I-5, Hwy 167, Hwy 18, and a 10-minute drive from Milton Safeway, Starbucks, Federal Way Costco, medical services, dining, and parks. Lot L is .44 acres, and 80' wide by 240' deep. Lot L is partially bordered by two (2) greenbelt buffers, and a unbuildable 105' x 240' Lot N (.58 acres) borders its immediate south boundary. Unlike most raw land offerings, Lot L benefits from extensive developer-completed entitlement work, including drainfield/storm engineering, surveys, and county approvals. This entitlement work eliminates buyer capital risk while accelerating financing, design, permitting, and construction timelines. Buyers may design/build independently as an owner-contractor or work with a designer and/or builder referral from the developer. King County Council vote set for 5/17/26 (V-2735): Whether to vacate 52nd Ave S (S 368th–S 370th) and enable HOA to pursue gated access to WWE. Drainfield design for Lot L approved 1/30/25. Lakehaven Water and PSE power are available along 52nd Ave S. HOA documents, Bylaws, and CCRs are being drafted to maintain consistent architecture, building standards, and long-term property values.
