Exceptional development opportunity in Ferndale! This General Business-zoned property is ready to build, offering three planned building sites with the costly and time-consuming site work already completed. Stormwater infrastructure, water, sewer, and electrical are in place, allowing a developer to move directly toward vertical construction and significantly reducing development time, cost, and uncertainty. A Binding Site Plan is currently in process, creating the ability for each of the three buildings to be separately owned and sold once constructed—providing excellent flexibility for development, financing, and future disposition. Develop all three buildings, sell individually, retain as investments, or occupy one and sell or lease the others. Flexible General Business zoning allows for a broad range of potential uses, including retail, office, industrial, flex, showroom, service businesses, and other commercial uses. The combination of flexible zoning, completed infrastructure, multiple building sites, and the potential for individual building ownership makes this an outstanding opportunity for an owner-user, investor, or developer. Skip much of the expensive groundwork and start with a site positioned for construction and multiple long-term exit strategies.

Looking for land where some of the hardest work has already been done? This 1.32-acre property offers a rare head start for your new home, with established services, a 40x40 shop, valuable improvements, and a private homesite ready for your vision. Instead of beginning with raw land and figuring out how to bring in power, secure a water source, and establish septic, this property already has key infrastructure in place. The septic system was recently inspected and passed, a shared well is established, and power is already on the property. An older 27x60 manufactured home currently occupies the site, creating an opportunity to replace it with a new manufactured home through a land/home package or explore building the home you've been planning. A large 40x40 shop is already here, giving you 1,600 square feet of valuable space for vehicles, equipment, storage, projects, or hobbies from day one. Additional property improvements add even more value and make the possibilities easier to see. Best of all, the homesite sits toward the back of the property, offering privacy and separation while still providing a convenient, usable setting. Picture your new home tucked back on the acreage, with your shop ready to use and much of the essential infrastructure already established. If you've been searching for land but don't want all the unknowns that can come w/an unimproved parcel, take a closer look here. Bring your plans, explore your options, and take the next steps. Appointment Only.
