About This Home
As of May 20231st things 1st, This property is located in the R-3 Residential Zoning District and is zoned as a non-conforming commercial space. Any use will require a non-conforming intensity review. So what that means in English, is that by right this can be a single family house! You'll need permits to build and fit out the rooms and run the plumbing et cetera but as a single family house it is permitted by right... We even have some proposed floor plans! (check the documents section)
What else can you do here, that's a good question. Short answer is this can be a family single house with no zoning issues. It lays out nicely as a 2 unit but will have to go through zoning to be able to show 3 parking spaces. The good news is we have negotiated with an owner down the street to secure 3 spaces on a long term lease or the lot is available for sale.
OK now lets talk about this very cool building! It's built of brick with a poured concrete foundation , really solid and quiet! The lot is shaped like a triangle and the building matches... It faces Orange Street as a 2 story brick building, and then along the right side the alley narrows and the back of the building is no more than 12 ' ft wide.
Be sure to check out the photos and video!
