This single-floor space is designed with entertainment and functionality in mind. The main area is anchored by a full-sized pool table positioned beneath a pendant light fixture that provides focused overhead illumination. The room features carpeted flooring and warm yellow-toned walls, creating an inviting atmosphere. A textured accent wall with an abstract, earthy mural adds a distinctive artistic element to the space. A dartboard is mounted on the wall nearby, complementing the recreational theme of the room. Adjacent to the main area, a lounge nook houses a television and seating, offering a comfortable spot for relaxing between games. A window in the lounge area allows natural light to filter in. To one side, a kitchenette provides practical amenities including a white range, upper cabinetry, and counter space — making the space well-suited for hosting gatherings. A wooden dresser and decorative plant add warmth and character to the overall design. The layout is open and spacious, allowing for easy movement between the recreational, lounge, and kitchen zones.

Located on the fringes of Auburn's residential areas and transitioning into rural lands in the east, Plateau sits between the Green River to the north and the Stuck River to the south. The Muckleshoot Native American Reservation bisects the area, with its casino being the most distinctive presence in the Plateau. For renters looking to live a semi-rural locale without straying too far from the conveniences of large urban areas, this community’s tree-lined subdivisions and plentiful parks create an ideal suburban experience.
Central Auburn lies three miles to the northwest, while Seattle rests 30 miles northwest, and Tacoma 16 miles southwest.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
