This Santa Rosa property presents a rare infill development opportunity. It features an existing improved yard with an office and shop, centrally located just East of the SMART Rail line and north of the Highway 12 overpass. Situated within an established industrial pocket rezoned to Maker Mixed Use (MMU), the property allows a flexible blend of light industrial, creative, and residential uses. The offering consists of three separate parcels totaling approximately 1.33 acres. Development potential is governed by Floor Area Ratio (FAR), with an allowed FAR of 4, supporting a potential buildout of over 200,000 square feet. Existing improvements total approximately 4,456 square feet. The property is currently leased to a towing operator at $4,500 per month, providing interim income while planning for future redevelopment. The site is fully served by city water and sewer, with PGE utilities in place.
