Developer & Investor Alert: Prime 26,400 sq ft property with 200 ft frontage in North Surrey’s transitioning Royal Heights. This high-potential parcel offers exceptional versatility in a rapidly growing neighborhood. Development pathways include subdividing into 4 R3-zoned lots to construct 5,000 sq ft homes, or applying under Frequent Bus Stop Area (FBSA) guidelines to build up to 6 dwelling units per lot with zero parking requirements. The existing 2,800 sq ft residence features a secondary suite, serving as an ideal holding property to generate steady rental income while navigating the rezoning and building permit phases.
