Recorded names & construction-year samples (4 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.

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 4 recorded-name groups separate. “THORNBURY MEADOWS” has 98 county records with a year built from 1991–1992, median 1991; sampled residential lots have a 0.15-acre median (98 observations); “THORNBURY MEADOWS DIV 3” has 56 county records with a year built from 1965–1993, median 1992; sampled residential lots have a 0.16-acre median (56 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. 2 additional groups appear in the table below.
The sampled county records include SE THORNBURY DR, THORNBURY DR SE, SE 58TH AVE and 1 more street names in Lacey. 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?
- Who provides water, sewer, permits and road maintenance at this exact address?
- What year does the assessor record for this house, and which additions or major replacements have permits?
