This rare 12 acre greenfield site is located in the heart of Armstrong, BC, a bedroom community of Vernon. The new OCP designation calls for medium/high density residential and commercial and identifies it “the most significant greenfield and opportunity for new neighbourhood development in Armstrong”. Located close to schools, parks, and all downtown amenities. 15 minute drive to Vernon approx 1 hour drive to Kelowna. Priced to sell around $200k an acre, secure a keystone project in the heart of the Okanagan, and one of the few development parcels remaining inside the City.
Highlights
- The 12 acre site is a greenfield parcel, and per the listing its new OCP designation calls for medium/high density residential and commercial use.
- Municipal water, municipal sewer, natural gas and electricity are listed as available utilities.
- Per the listing, the site has creek waterfront and a river view.
- Town centre Armstrong is 590 m away, Hassen Memorial Arena 620 m and Highland Park Elementary 790 m, straight-line.
Things to check
- Ask the City what the current zoning allows and what approvals are needed before the new OCP designation applies.
- Ask the City whether the creek waterfront brings setback or environmental requirements that would limit development.
- Ask the City whether any servicing upgrades would be needed to connect the site to municipal water and sewer.
