Got a few million dollars burning a hole in your pocket? Tacoma’s real estate market has you covered.
The city’s three most expensive active listings currently range from a sprawling North End estate with a private putting green to an entire apartment complex — and, for the truly ambitious buyer, plans for a 307-unit development near the Tacoma Dome.
Together, the three properties are asking a cool $33 million.
For perspective, the median listing price for a home in Tacoma is about $525,000. In other words, we’re not exactly shopping in the “starter home with some sweat equity” section of the market here.
Here are Tacoma’s three priciest active real estate listings as of Aug. 19, 2026.
No. 1: $21.5 million — 301 E. 26th
Price: $21,500,000
Size: 246,080 square feet, as proposed
Property type: Multifamily development
Planned units: 307
Price per square foot: $87
First, a clarification: You are not getting a 308-bedroom mansion where Thanksgiving dinner requires its own seating chart.
The $21.5 million listing at 301 E. 26th is a development opportunity known as Mount Bay Apartments, rather than a completed apartment building.
The project is being marketed as a permit-ready, fully bid and “shovel-ready” workforce housing development in Tacoma’s Transportation District. Plans call for 307 units just a block from some of the city’s biggest transportation connections, including Tacoma Link light rail, Sounder and Amtrak.
The proposed project clocks in at roughly 246,000 square feet and includes two landscaped courtyards, below-grade parking, retail space, a fitness center, shared workspace and a seventh-floor indoor-outdoor sky lounge.
Because apparently a regular lounge simply wasn’t going to cut it at $21.5 million.
Plans also call for a 95-car garage.
The property hit the market in January at its current asking price. Public listing records show the underlying property last sold in 2021 for about $3.65 million.
So while it technically tops Tacoma’s real estate listings by price, this one is less “move in Saturday” and more “bring your development team.”

No. 2: $6 million — 3024 N. Vista View Drive
Price: $6,000,000
Bedrooms: 4
Bathrooms: 4
Size: 6,108 square feet
Lot: 1.5 acres
Year built: 1994
Price per square foot: $982
Now we’re talking mansion.
Perched above the Tacoma Narrows, this gated North Tacoma estate is asking $6 million — making it the most expensive traditional single-family home among Tacoma’s current listings.
And unlike the $21.5 million property, you can actually sleep here without first obtaining construction financing.
The 6,108-square-foot home sits on 1.5 acres and comes with sweeping views of the Tacoma Narrows Bridges, Gig Harbor and the Olympic Mountains.
The house is essentially set up as two luxury homes stacked on top of each other. Both levels have their own kitchen, primary suite, living room and laundry room, making the property suitable for multigenerational living or guests who have overstayed their welcome but whom you can fortunately send to another floor.
Outside, things get even more extravagant.
There’s a 1,400-plus-square-foot view deck, an equally large heated patio, an outdoor bar and a private putting green.
The property also has a gated elevated driveway and four garage bays.
At $982 per square foot, it is by far the most expensive of these three properties on a square-foot basis. The home was built in 1994 and was listed in June.
For buyers who decide 1.5 private acres simply won’t do, the listing says another 2.5 acres can be purchased separately.
You know. For elbow room.

No. 3: $5.5 million — 5201-5215 S. Orchard Street
Price: $5,500,000
Units: 20
Bedrooms: 40 total
Bathrooms: 20 total
Size: 18,000 square feet
Lot: 1.45 acres
Year built: 1981
Price per square foot: $306
The third-most expensive listing in Tacoma takes another hard turn.
For $5.5 million, buyers aren’t getting one house. They’re getting 20 of them — or, more accurately, 20 apartment units spread across five four-unit buildings.
Known as Grande Terrace, the South Orchard Street property consists entirely of two-bedroom, one-bath units.
The 18,000-square-foot complex sits on 1.45 acres and was built in 1981. It also includes 20 covered parking spaces.
According to the listing, the complex is fully occupied, with tenants paying their own utilities. The seller also touts recently replaced water tanks and heaters and says there are no outstanding maintenance issues.
Translation: This is the decidedly less glamorous member of Tacoma’s $5 million club, but unlike the mansion with the putting green, this one is designed to make money.
The property was listed March 31 for $5.5 million. Public records show it previously sold in 2018 for $3.6 million.
At $306 per square foot, the asking price works out to about $275,000 per apartment unit.
Suddenly $5.5 million almost sounds reasonable.
Almost.

Three very different versions of Tacoma luxury
Tacoma’s most expensive listings offer an unusual snapshot of just how broad the term “real estate” can be.
At one end is a $6 million private estate where the selling points include Olympic Mountain views, four garage bays and a place to practice your short game without encountering another human being.
At the other are two multimillion-dollar investment properties: one already housing dozens of tenants and another envisioning hundreds more near one of Tacoma’s busiest transit hubs.
