What the records establish
Housing, development history & ownership.
- Construction history
- Plat/covenants dated May 1948; association incorporation June 1976. Home years vary.
- Housing & styles

- Homebuilder
- Original builder has not been established in the sources reviewed.
- Ownership details
- Verify membership, beach/tideland rights and infrastructure maintenance.
- Street examples
- BEACH WAY NE · YEARLEY DR NE · BEVERLY DR NE · CAROLE DR NE. Sample streets, not a boundary or a matched parcel list.
- Parcel-sample jurisdiction
- Unincorporated Thurston County. This reflects the sampled parcels, not every property in the wider browsing region.
- Development history
- Association records date the Beachcrest plat to May 1948 and formation of the association to June 1976. These are different events.Source ↗
- Amenities & access

- Maintenance organization
- The association describes responsibility for community roads and facilities; exact road/parcel obligations require the declaration and road map.Source ↗
Recorded names & construction-year samples (2 record groups)
October 10, 2026 research snapshot. These are legal-description search groups, not a count of homes or certified plat boundaries. Divisions, phases and similarly named records remain separate. Year-built fields can include later replacement buildings and non-house property types.
| Recorded name | Year-built sample | Residential lot sample |
|---|---|---|
| BEACHCREST32 named parcel observations | 1955–201029 year observations · median 1988 | 0.24 acres median29 acreage observations |
| BEACHCREST DIV 136 named parcel observations | 1949–201930 year observations · median 1983 | 0.14 acres median30 acreage observations |
Acreage is the median of positive lot-size observations below 100 acres coded RES in the research, not a measurement of every home lot. Samples can be incomplete or overlap; do not add them to calculate community totals. Confirm the actual parcel, original permit, additions and recorded map before relying on a date or size.
Evidence: community documented. Development dates, association formation and individual home completion are separate facts. Research updated October 10, 2026.

Questions to take to a showing
The useful details
What changes from one home to the next?
This is a named subdivision. The recorded plat, phase and parcel explain the legal footprint; the community name alone does not establish a home’s age, builder or shared rights.
What the records show
The county research keeps 2 recorded-name groups separate. “BEACHCREST DIV 1” has 30 county records with a year built from 1949–2019, median 1983; sampled residential lots have a 0.14-acre median (30 observations); “BEACHCREST” has 29 county records with a year built from 1955–2010, median 1988; sampled residential lots have a 0.24-acre median (29 observations). These assessor samples help compare building eras, but do not establish the first or last home in a subdivision or the permit history of an individual address.
The sampled county records include BEACH WAY NE, YEARLEY DR NE, BEVERLY DR NE and 1 more street names in Unincorporated Thurston County. These are sampled records, not a mapped neighborhood boundary.
Questions to take to a showing
- Which recorded plat, phase and lot does the address belong to?
- Are the water view, beach path, dock or road rights recorded for this parcel, or are they simply nearby?
- Who provides water, sewer, permits and road maintenance at this exact address?
