About this property

This premier development assembly represents a rare, investment in the heart of Hamilton's most stable growth corridor. Featuring exceptional dual-street frontage and an expansive, "oasis-like" footprint, the site is perfectly positioned for high-density intensification or premium subdivision. The property is uniquely prepared for immediate action, boasting approved severance for two rear lots and existing municipal servicing (water/sewer) for up to 4 lots, significantly reducing "soft cost" timelines and site preparation hurdles. Investors can capitalize on an immediate revenue stream from the existing well-maintained bungalow to offset carrying costs while navigating the approvals for a 6-storey residential mid-rise (32-56 units), 12 luxury townhomes, or a four-lot detached enclave. Strategically located near the Stone Church and West 5th corridor, the site sits minutes from Mohawk College's Fennell Campus, making it an elite candidate for high-yield student housing or professional rentals. This is a versatile, high-potential redevelopment site in a high-demand neighborhood where the infrastructure is already in place to support your vision.
