Some lots are bought for their size or their price. This one was bought for the view. From seven-tenths of an acre on South Mission Ridge, the view runs out over the valley and the city below to a long line of mountain ridges on the horizon, with the skyline in the distance. Every step taken on the land since has been made with that view in mind.
The large trees have been cleared, so nothing stands between you and the horizon. Development is already in motion, with the driveway started, the top of the lot graded, and a ground study completed. A city water line runs from the top of the ridge down between this lot and its neighbor, which puts you well ahead of a typical raw-land purchase before the first plan is drawn.
The lot is approximately 0.70 acres, rectangular, and sloped, and it fronts a concrete street among established single-family homes. Zoning is R-1 single-family residential with no HOA: no design review, no dues, and no one to answer to but your builder.
A sloped site like this rewards good design. Place the main floor high to frame the valley from the kitchen and great room, and step a daylight lower level down the grade for guest space, a media room, or a studio. Wrap the back in a deep porch or terrace and the view becomes part of everyday life, from the first cup of coffee to the city lights after dark.
The property sits outside a designated flood zone, and with the clearing and early site work behind you, the path from closing to breaking ground is that much shorter.
Walk up to the graded top of the lot and see what the seller saw. Private showings are available by appointment.
