Enjoy hiking? Talus is nestled at the base of Cougar Mountain and has access to a trail network of about 200 miles and a nature preserve of more than 20,000 acres. Totaling 630 acres in size, you might think that Talus is quite dense and heavily populated. However, only 25% of those 630 acres are developed and lived-in, leaving a great expanse of untouched nature surrounding and flowing through the neighborhood. Since there are such great expanses of undeveloped and enhanced wild areas, Talus residents regularly see such wildlife as white tail deer, woodpeckers, raccoons, opossums, and perhaps even the occasional bear. No animal attacks have been reported in the neighborhood, however.
Talus is divided into ten distinct neighborhoods, offering a wide variety of housing in all price ranges and geared toward varied lifestyles and life-stages. These neighborhoods—TreAris, Wilderness Peak, Ascent, Cooper Ridge, Centerra, MountainAire, Hawksridge, Timber Ridge, the Estates at Cougar Mountain, and Rose Crest—offer homes ranging from apartments and townhomes to single family homes and retirement communities.
Created by some of the area’s finest home builders, many homes feature the finest in finishes and appliances. Views of the Cascade Range, Mt. Si, and wilderness areas abound.
