About This Lot
Discover this prime 12.32-acre parcel at 12956 and 12994 Highway 278 in Covington, GA, consisting of two adjoining lots (6.20 and 6.12 acres) in Tier 1 of the Brick Store Overlay District and Live/Work Area. Ideal for an upscale single-family subdivision with 12-16 premium homes (minimum 0.75-acre lots, 1,800 sq. ft. dwellings) or mixed-use development including a 1.5-acre commercial node with a Conditional Use Permit. Per current Overlay standards, the project requires 50-foot setbacks, 10% open space (1.23 acres), and 5% enhanced common areas (0.62 acres). Benefit from Highway 278 visibility, a high-income demographic, and future water/sewer availability (nearest sewer line approximately 2500 ft away) for higher-density options in this development node. Architectural standards mandate brick/stone exteriors and historic rural features, appealing to affluent buyers. Located in a designated growth node per Newton County's Future Land Use Plan, near the upcoming Rivian EV manufacturing plant (7,500 jobs by 2028) and Stanton Springs industrial park (home to Meta's data center and Takeda's medical facility), this unified parcel offers strong investment potential. Sold together for a cohesive project-don't miss this opportunity in East Newton County's coveted market. Contact us today!
