MEADOWBROOK APARTMENTS

LAKEWOOD, WA

Overview:

Meadowbrook Apartments

Meadowbrook Apartments is a 48-unit multifamily property built in 1978, featuring 36 one-bedroom and 12 two-bedroom units with an average unit size of 618 sq. ft. Most units have been recently renovated with hardwood floors, new carpets, and fresh paint.

The property sits on 5.22 acres across two adjacent tax parcels, offering a unique development opportunity to add up to 66 additional units and 87 parking spaces. There’s also potential to develop RV or mini storage on the excess land. Additionally, it’s located within an Opportunity Zone, providing investors with significant tax benefits.

Strategically located across from a new Amazon Distribution Center, the property is less than a mile from Interstate 5 and just 1.7 miles from the Madigan Gate of Joint Base Lewis-McChord (JBLM). A bus stop across the street connects the site to Madigan Army Medical Center and JBLM, ensuring strong transit accessibility.

Located in Lakewood, WA, a city with a population of nearly 65,000, the area is supported by major employment hubs, especially JBLM, which employs over 45,000 military and civilian personnel. Due to limited on-base housing, off-base rental demand is consistently strong, positioning Meadowbrook as a prime investment opportunity in a high-demand rental market.
