Property Description
This versatile acreage could potentially support approximately 25 to 50+ single-family lots, depending on development plans and county approvals.

Major employers such as Frito-Lay, Austal, and Aerostar are also expanding throughout 2024 and 2025, further strengthening the area's growth potential. This listing includes two parcels. Parcel key numbers are 479226 and 479217.
