If you’re searching for a townhome in Puyallup, Washington, Shaw Heights deserves a spot on your list. This Soundbuilt Homes community sits at the top of a hill in South Hill area of Puyallup, and most of its townhomes are already home to Soundbuilt families. Only a limited number of homesites remain, which means you can walk a real, established community rather than imagining one from a rendering.
Here’s why you should take a tour of Shaw Heights right now:
A Nearly Complete Community in a Strong Location
Shaw Heights includes 120 total homes, and today, just 27 townhomes and two model homes remain available. That means the streets, landscaping and neighbors are already in place – you’re seeing exactly what you’re buying into, not a future phase. Within the community, homeowners enjoy access to a playground, picnic area and extensive sidewalks, all set within a professionally landscaped community with grounds and landscaping maintained by the HOA.

The community’s position at the top of the hill also gives it a real commute advantage: Shaw Heights is much closer to the freeway than many nearby communities, which adds up for anyone commuting toward Tacoma, Seattle or elsewhere in the South Sound.
Plus, South Hill shopping and everyday errands are close by as well, so the location makes daily life that much easier. Historic downtown Puyallup is less than 5 miles away, while Bradley Lake Park is nearby, offering covered picnic tables, a playground, fishing and trails.
The community also falls within the award-winning Puyallup School District, with Ridgecrest Elementary, the newly rebuilt Ferrucci Junior High and Emerald Ridge High School all serving the area.

Built to Last: Energy Efficiency at Shaw Heights
Every Shaw Heights townhome is ENERGY STAR certified with a HERS Index score of 50, meaning the home is independently rated to use significantly less energy than a typical resale home.
That efficiency is built in thanks to:
- 2×6 exterior wall construction for enhanced insulation.
- A high-efficiency HVAC system.
- An energy-smart electric hybrid hot water tank.
- Cascade Low-E energy-efficient windows with screens.
- A 50-amp outlet for an EV charger roughed in to the garage.
