The property is explicitly marketed as a land-value development opportunity, with the listing description stating that the value is in the land and requires demolition.

The R4 zoning on a substantial 1.367-acre lot provides exceptional flexibility for multi-family configurations or high-density residential projects in a high-demand infill area.
Situated just minutes from Downtown Phoenix, the property offers prime access to major employment centers, transportation corridors, and urban amenities, making it highly attractive for redevelopment.
As the primary value lies in the land and the existing structure dates back to 1920, buyers must factor in the costs of demolition and clearing the site for new construction.
The property is served by local schools with low performance ratings, which may limit the appeal for family-oriented residential developments and impact future resale velocity.
Rare 1.367-acre (59,555 sq ft) R4-zoned infill opportunity in central Phoenix just minutes from Downtown. Large residential parcel offering significant development potential in an established neighborhood experiencing ongoing growth and redevelopment. City zoning allows for multiple residential configurations (buyer to verify density, lot split potential, and permitted uses). Flat, usable land with irrigation and convenient access to major transportation corridors, schools, shopping, and employment centers. Parcels of this size within the city limits are increasingly scarce. The value is in the land and its long-term development potential. Great investor opportunity!
