Residential and Commercial Development Opportunity Mixed Single-Family & Condominium Subdivision This property represents a unique opportunity to acquire a planned residential subdivision consisting of both single-family home, condominium and commercial lots, offered together as one development project. A previous tentative subdivision map was completed for the property, outlining a thoughtfully designed neighborhood with interior streets, a cul-de-sac, and a combination of detached homes and higher-density residential lots. The layout provides a balanced community design with traditional single-family homes and clustered condominium lots. Several improvements related to the original subdivision process have already been completed. A dedicated turn lane has been constructed to provide improved access to the development, and some development and entitlement fees were previously paid during the earlier approval process. While the prior tentative map has expired, it provides a strong framework and development concept for future approvals. A new owner will need to resubmit the tentative map and supporting studies to the county for updated approval, but the prior engineering work, layout design, and infrastructure improvements may help streamline the entitlement process compared to starting from the beginning. This offering is well suited for a builder, developer, or investment group seeking a partially advanced subdivision project with the potential to deliver a mix of housing types within a planned residential community. Key Highlights Mixed residential subdivision opportunity Combination of single-family lots and condominium lots Prior tentative subdivision map prepared (expired - requires resubmission) Turn lane already constructed for improved access Some entitlement and development fees previously paid Existing conceptual neighborhood layout and engineering work completed Opportunity to revive and complete a partially advanced development project This property offers developers the opportunity to build upon prior planning work and move forward with creating a new residential community in an established area.
