9693 Shortcut Road, Marine City, MI - 3.26 Acres
Land | 3.26 acres | Development Site with Two Approved Concepts — Self Storage or Multi-Family
Marketing description
Realty Executives Showcase Commercial is pleased to exclusively present 9693 Shortcut Road, an approximately three-acre development parcel in Marine City, Michigan — a rare dual-track development opportunity offering an investor two fully conceived paths to value creation on a single site.
The property has already undergone extensive planning and site engineering. Under the first strategy, the site benefits from a site plan approved self storage development, supported by four professionally engineered building configurations prepared by TruSteel Buildings, spanning hybrid climate-controlled/traditional storage, dedicated boat and RV storage, and full-service marine storage concepts of up to approximately 65,550 square feet across as many as seven buildings.
Under the second strategy, the site can be developed as a multifamily apartment community, with conceptual site layouts accommodating approximately 66 to 110 units across two- and three-building configurations, complete with clubhouse and leasing office, walking paths, community pond, professional landscaping, and ample parking.
Positioned on Shortcut Road (the M-29 corridor) adjacent to established commercial development, the site combines visibility, access, and flexibility in one of the St. Clair River corridor's established waterfront communities — a market defined by strong boating culture, constrained new housing supply, and steady rental demand.
