About This Lot
A rare and versatile property offering 1.6 acres of land just minutes from the heart of downtown Ponchatoula. Ideal for developers, investors, or future homeowners, this spacious parcel offers the flexibility and location to bring a wide range of visions to life. Zoned for single-family, multi-value family residences, and multi-family duplexes, the lot is ideal for income-generating multi-unit development — but it also presents a fantastic opportunity to build a custom single-family home with plenty of room for outdoor living, a workshop, garden, or guest house. With so few large parcels available this close to downtown, this property offers a rare combination of small-town charm and uncommon space. Included on the property are a mobile home, two spacious buildings ready to be repurposed for a variety of uses, and a historic small chapel, adding unique character and architectural interest. All existing structures are included in the sale at no assigned value, giving you a blank slate with incredible potential. The land is in an X Flood Zone and easily accessible, with road frontage on a quiet street. Located just a short walk (approximately 5 minutes) from Ponchatoula’s vibrant downtown area, the property is surrounded by restaurants, shops, parks, and schools — offering convenience, connectivity, and neighborhood charm.
