R-2 Residential Land-Needles CA (up to 17 DU/PR/AC)
R-2 Land up to 17 DU/PR/AC-Needles CA
Marketing description
The subject property presents a rare opportunity to acquire approximately 20 acres of R-2 zoned residential land in the City of Needles, California. With medium-density residential zoning already in place, the property offers developers and investors the flexibility to create a thoughtfully planned community featuring duplexes, townhomes, or other residential product types permitted by the City.
As housing demand continues to outpace new construction in many smaller California communities, this site offers the potential to deliver much-needed housing in a market with limited modern residential inventory. Its strategic location near Interstate 40, Historic Route 66, and the Colorado River provides convenient access to regional employment centers, recreational amenities, and neighboring markets in Arizona and Nevada.
The property's substantial acreage allows for phased development, providing flexibility to align construction with market demand while managing development costs over time. Located within the City of Needles' municipal service area for water, sewer, and electric utilities, the site benefits from infrastructure that can support future residential development, subject to standard utility connection and capacity requirements.
Whether your strategy is to develop a new residential neighborhood, build a build-to-rent community, create duplex housing, or hold the property as a long-term investment, offers an exceptional combination of scale, zoning, location, and future growth potential.
