This listing offers commercial land suitable for a range of development ideas, including retail, office, medical, and food-related uses. The parcel is described as 3.5 acres and positioned for mixed-use planning, with residential permitted above a proposed commercial building as long as it does not exceed 50% of the commercial building’s footprint.

Interested parties should review the applicable zoning requirements and development standards directly to confirm feasibility for their specific plan.
