Listing Description

Subdivision and Development Potential This property offers substantial development opportunities under its current RE zoning designation, which permits one dwelling unit per acre (1 du/ac), allowing for the creation of approximately six estate lots-each requiring percolation testing and well installation.

Alternatively, a Special Exception may be pursued to allow for Senior Detached Housing, which increases the allowable density to six dwelling units per acre (6 du/ac), supporting the development of up to 35 detached units. The conceptual design is based on the development principles of the R-55 zoning classification, with proposed lot sizes at a minimum of 6,500 square feet.

It is important to note that the preliminary concept and resource plans indicate environmental constraints, including wetlands and a stream, which may impact the total number of buildable lots. A comprehensive feasibility study by your civil engineer is recommended during the study period to assess these conditions and refine the layout.

The site is 100% wooded and includes identified wetlands and a stream per a formal Wetlands Report. Additionally, a WSSC right-of-way traverses the property. Preliminary engineering work has begun, including a concept plan and natural resource inventory, with available documentation accessible online. Please note: The property may not be accessed without a scheduled appointment-unauthorized entry is not permitted.
