Property Description
Madison Valley redevelopment opportunity offering multiple paths for value creation in a prime location surrounded by continued growth, investment, and strong neighborhood demand.For buyers not pursuing immediate ground-up development, the existing structure presents compelling potential. A thoughtful renovation and reconfiguration may create two separate residential units, offering an owner/user setup, income opportunity, or long-term hold while preserving future redevelopment options.For larger-scale redevelopment, the property is zoned NC2-75 (M1), allowing exciting mixed-use possibilities with heights up to 75 feet. Ideal for developers, assemblage buyers, investors, or those seeking long-term upside.Situated on an approx. 4,030 SF lot, the site may support a variety of concepts, including residential above ground-floor commercial or amenity space, subject to buyer verification, design review, and permitting. Preliminary planning suggests approximately 20,000-28,000 SF of gross buildable area and roughly 25-40 residential units, depending on design, unit mix, parking strategy, and commercial use.An exceptional opportunity in one of Seattle's most sought-after neighborhoods with convenient access to retail, dining, transit, employment centers, and continued area growth. Buyer to verify zoning, unit count, rental potential, and redevelopment feasibility to their satisfaction.
