Description

Rare opportunity to own approximately 19,372 SF of unrestricted land in the heart of Shady Acres. Currently home to a thriving landscape design firm, this lush, tree-lined property offers endless possibilities for luxury townhomes, a private estate, commercial use, or a creative live/work concept. The existing building features high ceilings and abundant natural light, while the expansive grounds are filled with mature trees and established landscaping that create a truly park-like setting. Surrounded by high-end new construction and just minutes from the Heights Hike & Bike Trail, popular restaurants, breweries, shopping, I-10, and Loop 610, this is a rare chance to develop one of the area’s most distinctive properties. The combination of size and mature trees creates a truly distinctive development opportunity.
