About This Lot

As of September 2025

Large 1.0 acre Residential Lot! Currently zoned R1 but could possibly changed to R2 as there is a series of duplex apartments to the south. Zoning change would need City of Cortez approval. Currently 2 Cortez Sanitation sewer lines run through the parcel, buyer would need to confirm potential building plans with the City of Cortez and the Cortez Sanitation District. The Sanitation District could confirm the sewer line locations. The seller believes the lot is split into approximately 3 even pieces. With a zoning change, could possibly build 3 duplexes. May be possible to subdivide into 3 lots. Any potential plans would need approval by the City of Cortez and the Sanitation District.
