Over **½ acre** in the Wildwood neighborhood of Squak Mountain, this sewered Issaquah parcel offers privacy, elevation, and a dramatic natural setting just minutes from downtown. The wooded lot features mature evergreens, filtered territorial views, and rugged topography shaped by dense Vashon advance outwash soils, with elevations ranging from roughly 440–530 feet. LiDAR mapping and professional geotechnical review identify steep terrain, natural benches, and several small historic slide features—the Southwest, Northwest, and Northeast Slide areas—each exposing stratified sand and gravel typical of Squak Mountain. Mine Hill Creek winds through the lower portion of the parcel, adding to the site’s secluded character. Issaquah designates the property within multiple Geologic Hazard Areas, including steep slope, landslide, erosion, and coal mine hazard classifications. Historic underground coal workings are estimated 130–160 feet below the surface. Development will require a **variance**, and future construction may involve engineered solutions such as **deep foundations or pilings** to meet city performance standards. A dated water and sewer availability letter is on file with the City of Issaquah. A rare, secluded mountainside lot close to everything—ideal for a long-term hold or a future custom project requiring specialized geotechnical and structural design. **Seller will consider an owner-carry contract/DOT.**
