Overview

An outstanding development opportunity on 5.47 acres in Denton, with approximately 330 feet of highway frontage and high visibility from a heavily traveled roadway. The property includes two parcels, with the front parcel in the City of Denton and the back parcel in Denton County. A brick home sits toward the rear and will be sold AS-IS. The site currently relies on a water well and private septic, and city water is available at the road. A survey is available, which can help streamline planning and due diligence.

The land offers direct access off Highway 380 and provides convenient regional connectivity with easy access to I-35 to the east and Decatur to the west. The surrounding area includes access to major employment and education hubs, with the University of North Texas and Texas Woman’s University within a short drive. Krum ISD serves the area, and the property is zoned residential-agriculture.

With frontage, visibility, and utility access, the site may appeal to buyers and developers exploring residential-agriculture compatible projects or mixed investment planning. The existing home offers the option to factor an on-site structure into redevelopment timelines, subject to AS-IS condition, while survey availability supports informed site planning.
